Tai Snapper or more aptly named Pink Sea Bream, is a species of snapper native to the cold waters between New Zealand and Japan. It is a delectable fish that is considered by the Japanese to be one of the best-tasting fish in the sea.
Tai Snapper share the similar body characteristics of other snapper types such as the mangrove snapper, mutton snapper, and dog snapper. They all share the sloped profile, medium to large scales, with a spiny dorsal fin. The light, almost pink coloration is synonymous with the species.
The taste is a sweet to mild meld, with a distinct flavor. The meat is tender and when cooked, white, flaky, and delicious. There are many different ways and recipes to prepare Tai Snapper; seared, broiled, and grilled.

Place fish in a nonreactive dish and season with salt and pepper. Pour the lime juice over the fish, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
In an oven over moderate heat, heat the olive oil until hot, but not smoking. Add the onion, season with salt, cover, and sweat until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté briefly, and then add the tomatoes and more salt. Cover and cook until the tomatoes change color. Lower the heat and add the olives, capers, raisins, jalapeños, and bay leaves. Cover and simmer until the sauce thickens, about 10 to 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, remove the bay leaves, and keep warm until ready to serve.
