Method

Smear a cast iron pan, non-stick pan or skillet with rice bran oil to stop fillets sticking to pan. Heat, then throw snapper in the hot pan to cook for 1-2 minutes on each side (depending on the fillet size). Try to avoid flipping the fish more than once.

Meanwhile heat another pan with 1 tablespoon of rice bran oil. Throw in the ginger, capsicums, onion, shallots and capers to cook for a couple of minutes.

Plate up fish, place the capsicum mix on top then drizzle with olive oil and a squeeze of lime juice.
