Fish Cooked in Cilantro

• A 3-to 3 1/2-pound (1.35 to 1.575 kg) red snapper
• 1 scant teaspoon salt
• Freshly ground pepper
• 1 1/2 cups (375 ml) thinly sliced white onions
• 1/3 cup (85 ml) fresh lime juice
• 1/3 cup (85 ml) olive oil
• 3 jalapeno chiles en escabeche
• 3 tablespoons juice from the chile can
• 2 cups (500 ml) roughly chopped cilantro

1. Have the fish cleaned, leaving the head and tail on.
2. Prick the fish well on both sides with a coarse-tined fork, and rub it with the salt and pepper.
3. Place the fish onto a baking dish with half the onions underneath and the rest on top.
4. Pour the lime juice over it and set it aside for about 1 hour, turning it over once during that time.
5. Preheat the oven to 350F (180C).
6. Cover the dish and bake the fish for about 15 minutes on each side.
7. Add the rest of the ingredients and continue cooking the fish, covered, until it is just cooked, basting it from time to time with the juices in the dish-about 20 minutes.
