Ingredients: 2 whole red snapper (12 oz each) or 4 snapper fillets (5 oz each), cleaned, scaled, patted dry; 2 medium delicata squash, halved lengthwise, seeded, cut into 1-inch wedges; Kosher salt and fresh black pepper; 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil; 2 tbsp unsalted butter, divided; 4 passion fruit, halved (or ¼ cup fresh passion fruit pulp); ¼ cup dry white wine; ¼ cup fish or vegetable stock; 1 shallot, minced; 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice; 2 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cubed; Fresh cilantro for garnish

A whole fish (or two fillets) seared skin-side-down to crackling gold, then finished skin-up with a silky passion fruit butter sauce. Charred delicata squash adds autumn sweetness and caramelized depth. Intermediate pan technique: proper heat, a good sear, and butter emulsification.
