Living in South Florida Snapper has become one of my favorite fish and I have collected many recipes on how to cook Florida Snapper, but this is one of my favorites!
Snapper has a very mild flavor and perhaps even sweetness to it. The flesh of a Snapper is semi-firm in texture and most recipes call for snapper fillets to be skinless although some people like to cook the entire fish with skin on.
