Prepare Vinaigrette: In a small bowl, whisk all the ingredients together. Reserve.

Pour canola oil into large sauté pan and preheat over medium high until just smoking.

Lift the seasoned fish from the plate and sprinkle evenly with kosher salt.

Place the fish in the hot pan seasoned-side down, and sear for 3 to 5 minutes. Turn over and sear the other side for an additional 3 to 5 minutes.

6

Remove from the pan and cover to keep warm.

Prepare greens and tomatoes: Slice Roma tomatoes in ˝-inch-thick slices; brush with olive oil and grill over medium heat, just on one side for about 2 to 3 minutes.

8

Take the hot pan that you just cooked the fish in and add the garlic and olive oil. Cook for about half a minute and remove from heat.

Add the clean, dry watercress and radicchio to the pan.

Drizzle with the sherry vinaigrette, add salt, and toss gently.

Hey, This One's a Keeper!- would make it again.  "I had never had red snapper before, let alone tried to cook it!  It was easy to sear, and it cooked up beautifully and moist.  We enjoyed this dish."
