A Fish Named Snapper

It really wasn't as gross as I imagined it to be-handling a fish that is.
I had a great time exploring Central Market to buy him.
He did leak in my car a little so we had a "fishy" smell even a day later-Taylor pointed that out!
He weighed about 3.75 pounds.
He had a face that only a mother could love.
He was delicious!!!

That's Rosemary in his mouth!
Humor of the CW brothers.
Before the oven...












After the oven!
The salt just flakes off and you collect the meat from inside.



The whole dinner menu went super smooth. We fed 12 hungry mouths and everyone was as amazed as we were that the fish turns out so tender, moist, and flavorful. The Eggplant Involtini was a huge hit too. Both are truly not that hard to make and they taste phenomenal.
It was a success!
"Check" that off my summer-to-do list.
I'm enjoying cooking more and more everyday!
