Maybe that was my mistake. I used a Calphalon pan and followed directions to a tee, but the skin stuck to the pan and this dish was a disaster...anything but crispy. Still tasty, but nothing like the picture.

Ingredients

  • 2 red snapper fillets (each 10 to 12 ounces), with skin Coarse salt, to taste Cayenne pepper, to taste 3 tablespoons canola oil

Directions

Cut each snapper fillet in half crosswise. Season flesh with salt and cayenne pepper.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot (but not smoking). Place snapper fillets, skin sides down, in skillet, pressing on fish with a spatula for 1 minute to prevent curling. Cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip, and cook until opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes more.
