Snapper stuffed with lemons and fresh basil is baked whole in the oven, resulting in a fantastically juicy and tender dish. Served with poblano chili peppers stuffed with butter-sautéed pearl onions. Unlike many other chili peppers, poblano chili peppers have a rather mild flavor and make a great accompaniment to fish.
