Ingredients
- 1 whole red snapper cleaned and scaled
- 1 Tablespoon oil
- salt, pepper
- Herb rub see below
Herb Rub
- 1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
- 2 Tablespoons capers rinsed and finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- pinch crushed red pepper
- pinch salt
- 1 Tablespoon oil
Instructions
- Chop and mix the dry rub ingredients together. Transfer the paste to a small bowl and stir in the oil.
- Make parallel angled slashes on each side of the snapper about 1 – 1 ½ inches apart, slicing almost through to the bone. Fill the slashes with the herb paste. Drizzle the fish all over with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Preheat your grill on medium-high. Secure the red snapper in a grill rack. Roast for about 10 minutes on each side, until the flesh just flakes. (For safest cooking, use an instant read thermometer and cook to 145 F per the FDA; other sites suggest 135 F).
- Transfer the cooked fish to a platter, using oven mitts to handle grill rack. To serve, slice the fish along the herb lines and slide a server along the bones to separate the flesh. Serve warm.
