FRIED RED SNAPPER BITES
Even though I call this fried snapper bites, it can be done with any firm. white fish. You do want the chunks you fry to be at least the width of a finger, and even twice that, so use that as a guideline. I like the New Orleans remoulade with this, but you can use any sauce you like.

Steps:
- Mix all the ingredients for the remoulade together and set aside. The remoulade can be made up to a week in advance, and making it the night before lets the flavors mellow.
- Cut the fish into chunks of about two bites each. Salt lightly. Mix together in a bowl the eggs, mustard, Creole seasoning and heavy cream.
- Pour enough peanut oil hot into a frying pan to come about a half-inch up the sides. Heat this to about 350F.
- While the oil is heating, dunk as many snapper bites in the egg wash as will fit. When the oil is hot, dredge the fish in the mashed Saltines. You can do this in a bowl or in a plastic bag. Really press in the Saltines, and it's OK to have a few bits that aren't pulverized.
- Fry the fish until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and serve with the remoulade, and some lemon wedges if you have them.

Steps:
- Rinse to clean snapper with lime and water.
- On a cutting board, cut snappers to your liking. I would usually create 3 deep slits on both sides of the snappers but for this recipe I had two large ones so I cut mines in pieces. Buy ones that can fit in your pan!
- Pat fish dry. When done, season with fish seasoning, epis, salt, rosemary, thyme and lime juice. Marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes to an hour. This ensures that flavors get deep into the fish, yummy !
- When ready to make, use the largest non-stick frying pan you have. Add enough peanut oil to cover at least 1-1/2 inches of depth.
- Heat the skillet for a few minutes over medium heat. In the meantime, lets coat the snapper in flour batter. Dredge in flour and make sure to get flour into those crevices so they are also nice and crispy. While also, shacking off the excess flour afterwards and set aside.
- At medium heat, slowly fry for a few minutes on the first side but do not turn until it is ready. If you want to flavor the oil as I did it is optional. Add in scotch bonnet pepper, thyme and rosemary.
- When cooking, the fish will naturally release and float on top of the pan but you can also check by lifting it a little to make sure the snapper is golden. That is a sign, especially at medium heat that it is ready to be turned over.
- Total time should be no longer than 15 minutes for frying. But of course, not all stoves or pots are the same so keep an eye on it the entire time. My total time for frying was about 12 minutes using a dutch oven pot.
- Set on a cookie rack over an allimum pan to drain access oil. To reheat to keep skin crispy, bake at 350F for 5 minutes.
PAN-FRIED BLACKENED RED SNAPPER
This is a recipe that I came up with one night after finding some red snapper in the freezer. It can also be done with catfish, flounder, perch, or pretty much any white fish. Remember that the thinner the fillet, the shorter the cook time.
