If you’re starting to focus on your menu for a Passover Seder, you can take a diversion from your traditional main dishes. Aside from the ever-so-popular chicken dish, Brisket or Steak, have you ever considered serving fish with your matzoh kugel?
This recipe for Red Snapper Fillets (from Kosher by Gloria) is as refreshing as it is tasty. And, with the crunch and sweetness of the plantains, you’ll be sure to win over your guests. Don’t be fooled, this dish is terrific year-round too except, serving it on Passover might impress those expecting the off-the-shelf Friday night dinner entrees.
Also, the fact that the recipes doubles, triples, and quadruples easily makes it ideal for your growing (seder) table.
Enjoy — and remember you can substitute the Red Snapper with other white flaky fish too (Halibut, Grouper, etc)
