Veracruz-Style Red Snapper Recipe - Easy Baked Fish Veracruz

[@dkhary1010]

hope you never stop sharing your recipes

[@BillHalliwell]

Dear Chef John, I'm one of the millions who love seafood but hate cooking it; strange; because I'm a retired cook. Your snapper and mayonnaise recipe plus this classic dish has saved my bacon with my seafood loving spouse many times. We have beautiful snapper and many other kinds of fish here in Australian waters and your approach to fish cooking has been a revelation to our fish eating/cooking habits. I'm no longer afraid of fish (and as you know 'they know').You're a wiz! Thank you!

[@YuukiNagato]

Everything you cook is always mouth watering..

[@Nobodyzfool]

Chef John, Long time; first time. I just wanted you to know that this is among my favorite recipes of yours. Whenever I need to look up a recipe, I go to your channel; first, and if I must, work my way down the line. Thank you for being you, from Seattle.

It is really nice to see such a delicious dish prepared in another country. I'm from Mexico, more specifically from Veracruz, and I can say that your oven version looks incredible, practically the same as the traditional one. Congrats!

[@saltermini6945]

Chef John has so many great ethnic recipes! Love seeing this particular dish!

[@rudyvel]

I made this tonight with Red Snapper from Los Cabos where my bf was fishing a couple of weeks ago. It was INCREDIBLE!!!!

[@letty4815]

The narration is golden 🥰

[@Nobodyzfool]

My favorite recipe from John. Use it once a month.

[@JCSmith-jx3ex]

Just to let you know I tried this several weeks ago. Fantastic! Then I made it again using Alaskan cod, and it was so great. Today I made it again using Swahi, and none was left. Great recipe that is versatile enough to use several different types of fish.

[@truthfinder6246]

I love watching these older videos!

[@easein]

You are a God to good eating. I saw this vid a week ago and knew this would be a great Sunday lunch idea for visiting family. It got RAVE reviews. And no, I did not substitute this or change that. I even self pitted those fancy foodie olives (which are my new favorite). This recipe is a hit and a keeper! Which leads be back to a hearty Thank You! You enrich all our lives.

[@viniv20]

Oh my capers !!!! every recipe with capers always become my favs i love capers so so much !!!

[@mariahansen7179]

I lived in Veracruz State, I saw your recipe and it is really good and it is inspiring you are one of my favorite chefs, thank you for sharing your knowlede.

[@medproductions]

You hit the nail on the head perfectly. Chef John presents professional dishes with his own twist that are also accessible to the everyday home kitchen chef. I consider myself a professional chef and i have the utmost respect for Chef John.

[@jbooks888]

Time and time again, Chef john, your recipes just hit the spot superbly.

[@rachelmcgough700]

Wow. I cooked this for my husband and ... he actually didn't laugh and tell me he appreciated my effort. It was great! I had a lot of extra veggies because I overdid it a little, but the flavor was awesome! Thanks Chef John!

[@quotecat]

I have made this dish a few times and the recipe never fails to impress me. Thank you so much for making this video and inspiring me to cook and enjoy the meals I love.

[@jbirsner]

Just did this. Added 1/2 c red, 1/2c green bell pepper and pan fried tilapia about 2/3, had sauce separate, put over and under and gave flour dusted filets another minute or two until flaky. Rave reviews from the Peanut Gallery. Thank you so much, Chef John!

[@combgrain]

Found this while trying to recreate a restaurant experience. I did not hit it, but this was a winner for family dinner. It is in the regular rotation, and I have a start from which to explore variations. Thanks!

[@jessm8904]

This is my absolute favorite recipe of yours. I've made it several times and actually find myself craving it often! Well done

[@malivaditzel7929]

I made this for my family tonight. I served it just like you did with tortilla chips. My husband's first words were: "Ohhhh! Fish nachos!" I guess you don't have to be a child to eat like one! Thanks, Chef John!

[@jimolson8810]

I seriously LOVE your channel and your recipes. Love the sense of humor and your way of explaining these recipes. This one is next on my list.

[@Rainsofchange]

Chef John, I don't always cook what you feature, but darn it. You have me coming back almost everyday, anticipating yet another amazingly tantalizing video full of deliciousness and humor.

[@26Kubes]

Made this for dinner this evening. Super easy to make and very healthy. Everyone loved it, even the 9 year old! Thanks!

[@ProjectAtticus]

This is hands down my FAVORITE veracruzana recipe! Sooo delicious! I like to add cayanne pepper for an extra kick too :)

[@kryz9875]

Thank you Chef John for this recipe. I usually get bored with just baking fish but this recipe is certainly going to be a go-to recipe. I substituted the snapper with rock fish that I caught yesterday.

[@karlayork877]

Made this, loved it! Took an easy shortcut by slicing up a few jalapeño-stuffed olives.

[@RollinTumblin]

Chef john is a professional chef. he's also an experienced cookery tutor for professionals.

[@whoareyou2me]

I am seriously drooling. Olives and Jalapenos? Amazing...

[@PixieTrailSprite]

The colors are amazing. I think I'd have to have it with baguette rounds to sop up all of that lovely sauce.

[@karateflix]

PixieTrailSprite Good idea.

[@BillM1960]

Agreed

[@TeamHONEY1]

ok.. that's just LUSH.... I just finished baking a Whole snapper in the over ( stuffed with Parsley,Shallots,Lime juice,Salt N Pepper ) OMG.. just too good ! Vercruz Style Snapper is Next on my To do list Thanks Chef John... :)

[@foodwishes]

It's a simple and effective form of mind control. Thanks!

[@johnnys4782]

Excellent dish chef john! So simple and wonderful! Thanks!

[@nonalolagirl]

His captions are actually 80% correct, that's proof that Chef John has the best voice on youtube.

[@faraha1547]

Made this tonight minus the olives. Absolutely delicious!!

[@oscarherrera453]

It's always so wonderful to watch your channel. You safe me a few times when I run out of dinner ideas 💡 thank you for sharing your knowledge!!!

[@BrianMMIX]

I hate fish, olives, and tomato, but you make it look so delicious. You're the best Chef :)

[@DJDiverDan436]

There are really a ton of ways to make this dish. I scuba dive, and often travel to Cozumel, Mexico, which not only has great diving, but a real wealth of very good locally owned restaurants, with great fresh seafood. I have had Fish Vera Cruz in maybe 4 or 5 different restaurants, and never exactly the same way twice. The common factors are onions, garlic, tomatoes, olives and capers. Maybe it’s a Yucatan thing - Yucatan cuisine is often not as spicy as Mexican cuisine from states farther north, like Vera Cruz, and I usually see poblano peppers rather than jalapenos. The poblanos are milder and a bit fruitier, and I think they work great with this recipe.

[@Casiopea85]

Made this today for dinner, added some other leftover veggies I had in the fridge and it was amazing. Served with cilantro rice and black beans 🤤

[@losalmagueres]

Im mexica and I think this recipe its beatiful,you are the men Chef John.!! cheers

[@MrJasonBoudreaux]

Actually ate this for the first time last week at a local place. It was awesome.

[@PaulTheillusionist]

You temp us so much by posting these recipes at night!

[@bnickdude]

I made this last night with yellow perch. Had the onions, peppers, oregano and tomatoes fresh from the garden & just happened to have a jar of capers on hand. What a fantastic blend of flavor along with those sweet perch fillets. Also easy to make!

[@grzegorz16100]

You must be a hipster;)

[@ninesticks]

I've done this several times and it is now a go to way for baked fish....really tops..thanks CJ

[@txhypnotist]

I bless you with joy, peace, love and abundance in you life & your Y.T. Channel. Plus all those who follow.

[@isbellewells4031]

This was amazing! I did it without jalapeño and my husband, my 6 y/o daughter, and I loved it soooo much! Thank you!

[@DanielDauphin]

I have watched a ton of your videos and have loved them all. This one, however, seems even more scrumptious than your already high norm. Can’t wait to try it!

[@jessm8904]

Fav recipe, I crave this especially with blue corn chips! Ahhh that and a margarita or two 🙌🏻

[@michaelnardmann3208]

Tastes awesome and helped me loose weight. This is the stuff you need when sorting out your cal intake. You Chef John are one of a kind, thx! Greetings from Germany.

[@mrsallabrown]

I made snapper for dinner last night. It was amazing . Thank you so much

[@mssunnyshine2]

Hey Chef John just made this dish for dinner and it was absolutly delish. Even my 14 yr old daughter who claims she doesn't like fish had to try this. Now all the veggie are really good by it self or should i say with the blue chips. Thanks for sharing

[@pheline24]

This looks so good and possible for the fish challenged among us. Thanks!

[@ninesticks]

i did this modified with a few cut parboiled potatoes and a little olive oil for a covered bake...served over bas-rice with a little really good evo ....i used some pacific rock fish which i chunck-ed small across any grain as it can become tough.....this is really great recipe/method ...thanks CJ

[@Malakaiea]

[@priapamei]

Super chef in the world!!

[@elmacca]

المصريه السويسريه للتغذيه الصحيه تحياتي وجميل جدا ما تقدمون

[@angeldust171]

You're awesome chef John. Cooking according to your videos is such a great experience and I really hope you continue making such easy to follow, funny and amazing videos.

[@rondagoodlet5588]

Going to the Fresh Market for the Snapper tomorrow, will absolutely try your recipe Thanks so much for sharing chef John!

[@lovelylola31]

i love both of them. they are the best, and laura's voice is fine plus i love her italian accent =)

[@RainSunRain]

Chef John, can you make a video about your cooking career? How did you get started cooking, what culinary school you went and all the jobs you have been through. I've just started cooking and I need some advice on whether I should enter culinary school

[@maggieandbart1]

This must be so tasty, going to give it a go this week....going to serve with crusty bread...mmmmmmmmmmmmm. Thanks chef John.

[@bplatonova]

Love his voice

[@drtmvoss]

I know this is quite a few years (7?) old, but it popped up in my feed today. I don’t have snapper where I live, but I have a lot of rockfish (black cod, ‘tis sometimes called) that we catch “bottom fishing” off the Oregon coast. Lots of people love it and use it for fish frys but I find it bland, compared to the salmon and steelhead we catch, and am always looking for interesting recipes to “spark” it up a bit. This looks like a winner!

[@cyndifoore7743]

Thank you Chef John, I needed a good fish recipe!

[@MsJustperformance]

Just tried this... It's one of the best dish I've had for a long time :) Thanks again!!!!

[@nutanpalkar-vaidya7396]

looks very yummy.will try soon

[@GlaDiary36]

Wow the dishing is really attractive and appetizing

[@paimannamazi1128]

That looks absolutely delicious however, instead of the chips I would make some nice Spanish yellow rice to go with it. And a small house salad with cucumbers and tomatoes on the side.

[@mar0906lopes]

very good fish recipe! i will definitely do the recipe, this weekend. thankx

[@MasumaMita]

Just wow, thank you chef! Love your all recipe s. You are the best👌😊.

[@scruffy281]

My mouth is watering!! Beautiful!!

[@crazyfunguyphil7]

Looks incredible. Going to give it a go this weekend.

[@lgilbert1982]

Oh my gosh that looks good. I don't like olives, but I love every other bit of this. Especially the red snapper. I LOVE red snapper. Sadly, I haven't had it in years, but I used to order it all the time when I lived down in Mississippi. I am SO going to have to check the market and see if I can find some fresh red snapper now, lol. :D

[@jimholmes4224]

Do you see this as the entree or the fish course? If the main entree, what else does your meal consist of? Looks wonderful!

[@Aya-ll2of]

Thank you for sharing. So detailed

[@roshogullah89]

I made this today and it turned out delicious! Thanks Chef John! You're the best :D

[@flubberydoojones8946]

I sliced the fish up and put it in a plate, and everything else I pureed everything else into a blender and drizzled the sauce on the fish. It may sound weird, but trust me. It tastes very good! ^-^

[@praxis321]

Very good video, the only thing that wold make this even better is to add some butter to the olive oil before putting in the oven so that the butter doesn't burn and that will give it a great flavor.

[@forestsandman]

This I everything I love in one dish. I'm going to try this with salmon today!

[@winddialfarm]

Thanks for the video and recipe. Made tonight and it was amazing.

[@doomoncharlie]

I wish I liked fish .. that looks so good.

[@patriciavincent5076]

Wow! Super delicious.

[@alexpink7]

love ur recipes.i am a cook myself. I love that recipe!

[@benw9949]

Chef John, could you please do a tortilla-crusted fish recipe? I'd love to try that at home. I love cooking fish as long as it's already filleted. Fish is easy (IMHO). And so tasty and good for you. That amount of jalapeños scares me! I think I'd substitute at least half green bell pepper, but include some jalapeños to try it. I've never used capers before, but the brine doesn't scare me. -- This recipe looks absolutely fantastic, and yes, the tortilla chips should really set it off. Maybe a bit of sour cream would lessen the heat from the chiles? Or is that wandering too far from the Veracruz recipe / style? How about black olives versus green olives? Gosh, I want to try this recipe. Mmmm.

[@hliu566]

Why do I always watch your videos late at night!?

[@Rwella1]

that looks delish!! gonna try it tomorrow

[@icepopsicle21]

Always, always in the middle of the night. Why do you do this to us, Chef John. Why?? Jk, Chef John's recipes are the best!

[@GenjitsuSama]

:O I need that baking dish!!!

[@lizatran8606]

Love it , I will try out tonight...I'm a fish person

[@jimholmes4224]

I need to order some of those baking dishes. What size did you use for this recipe? Thanks!

[@suelifossey7710]

Very good recipe I cook few times already😄

[@JonasFeroz]

This turned out amazing.

[@freebrook]

[@SoVeryKeri]

such a great recipe! thank you!

[@sumirehana013]

I'm not a big fan of fish but this looks super delish!

[@vincentengland7927]

I don't know if it just Canada, but the cherry tomatoes (which I love) have really tough skins. Obviously this time of year they are imported, but even my home grown ones are the same.

[@carloscatano2964]

I appreciate this video and recipe . Thank you !
