SNAPPER FILLET
$10.00
Snapper is a meaty fish, with a good yield of lean white flesh with a moist, yet firm texture. Its flavor is mild and slight sweet. A snapper fillet can be sauteed, baked, grilled, fried,
broiled, oven roasted, or cooked in butter in a pan. You can bake it with lemons, butter, and some fresh herbs and your family will want more and more!
Our skin on, scales off snapper fillets are individually wrapped, boneless, frozen, and ready for cooking.
