Red Snapper Veracruz Style Recipe Instructions:Arrange the fish fillets in a single layer in a shallow dish. Season with salt and pepper, drizzle with the lemon juice and set aside.
Heat the oil in a large frying pan and sauté the onion and garlic until the onion is soft. Add the tomatoes and cook for about 10 minutes until the mixture is thick and flavoursome. Stir the mixture from time to time.
Stir in the bay leaf, oregano, capers, olives and chillies. Add the fish and cook over a very low heat for about 10 minutes or until tender.
While the fish is cooking, heat the butter in a small frying pan and sauté the bread triangles until they are golden brown on both sides.
Transfer the fish to a heated platter, pour over the sauce and surround with the fried bread triangles.
Garnish with bay leaves and serve with extra capers, if you like.
