Fabricating a Red Snapper Fish - Chef Clif Master Class

In this Chef Clif Master Class, Chef Clif breaks down how to fabricate a whole red snapper into clean fillets while explaining the anatomy, freshness checks, knife work, and fish-handling techniques behind the process. He walks through what to look for in a fresh fish, how to safely remove the fins, how to work around the head plate and bones to maximize yield, and how to turn one whole fish into two restaurant-quality fillets. Chef Clif also shows how to scale the fish, remove the skin for one fillet, leave the skin on for the other, and pull the pin bones so each piece is ready for cooking. It is a strong technique lesson for anyone who wants to get more comfortable breaking down whole fish at home.
