How to Make Red Snapper Italian Style Red Snapper

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Pat the red snapper fillets dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes.
  4. Place the red snapper fillets in a baking dish. Pour the marinade over the fillets, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  5. Top each fillet with a slice of lemon and a sprig of fresh oregano.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  7. While the fish is baking, prepare the cherry tomatoes and olives.
  8. In a small skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the cherry tomatoes and olives and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the tomatoes are slightly softened.
  9. Serve the baked red snapper immediately, garnished with the cooked cherry tomatoes and olives. Enjoy!
