Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Using a food processor, process the garlic, ginger, chilli, coriander and lime rind until finely chopped. Add the oil and process until a thick paste forms. Add 1-2 teaspoons water if the paste is too thick.
  2. Spread half the coriander paste over both sides of the fish. Lightly spray a large non-stick frying pan with oil and heat over high heat. Cook the snapper for 1 minute each side or until golden. Transfer to a baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until cooked to your liking.
  3. Meanwhile, cook the rice following packet instructions. Drain. Add the remaining coriander mixture and stir to combine. Sprinkle with the toasted coconut.
  4. Meanwhile, steam the sugar snap peas, bok choy and snow peas for 3 minutes or until tender. Serve the snapper with the rice, vegetables and lime wedges.
