Try shrimp cocktail, blackened shrimp or mahi mahi served over rice with vegetables.

3) Flounder


Flounder is a flatfish and like all flatfish, can be difficult to work with when you’re cooking it. It is thin, tender and flaky, but also quick to fall apart when cut or moved around too much. It’s best to fillet a flounder as soon as possible after catching it. Flounder are good on their own or with any variety of sauces or marinades you prefer. They also make excellent fish tacos! Flounder has a mild flavor that can be used in almost any kind of dish including soups, salads and casseroles too! Cooking Time: Cooked:5-8 minutes; Uncooked 4-6 minutes

Snapper has a sweet flavor with firm, white flesh. Snapper is high in protein and low in calories and fat. It can be prepared by baking, broiling, sautéing or steaming. Snapper is readily available and relatively inexpensive compared to other fish, making it a popular option for home cooks.

5) Snapper


Snapper is a fish that is delicious when eaten plain, breaded and deep fried or used in a fish sandwich. As a member of the jack family, snapper can grow up to 6 feet in length and weigh over 100 pounds. Snapper meat has delicate white flesh with mild flavor; it also melts easily when cooked. Whole snapper may be steamed or baked and either served whole or filleted for easier eating. Snapper is found in schools on deep reefs along rocky shores, where they feed on crustaceans such as shrimp, crabs and mollusks. It’s also important to note that there are several varieties of snappers including redfish (also known as red snapper), scamp, Nassau, lane and yellowtail
