It truly compliments the lightness of the snapper. The dish was easy to make and tasted wonderful. But there will definitely be a next time. I didn't find that the pulp added that much. I'll make it again simply because it's simple and easy a good weekday meal. Also, this recipe is fast and can easily be prepared after work without too much stress. The snapper is delicate and the lemon juice with the capers gives it an interesting zing. I served the fish with sauteed baby zucchini. After turning the snapper, I waited until it was almost done and added the lemon juice/shallot/butter mixture, then sprinkled it with parsley and cooked it through.

I made the recipe exactly as written and it was tasty but I did feel it would be even better if the fish was sautéed rather than baked and then the sauce made in the pan after.
