Grilled Red Snapper Recipes

Steps:

• Use a paring knife to cut four slits into both sides of each snapper, cutting through the skin and flesh. Whisk half of the lemon juice in a bowl with the oregano and half of the olive oil. Salt each fish liberally and put in a nonreactive container. Put the fish in a dish and pour the lemon mixture over them. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour, turning the fish after 30 minutes to take in the marinade.
• Lay out five grape leaves on the counter, making sure to overlap them to create a sheet that is as wide as the fish is long, and long enough to wrap around the snapper 1 1/2 times. Wrap one of the fish in the leaves. Repeat with the remaining grape leaves and snapper. Brush with the remaining olive oil and set aside.
• Heat a grill to medium-high. In a 2-quart saucepan, combine the stock, garlic, and remaining lemon juice. Bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat and whisk in the egg. Return the pan to the stovetop over low heat and, stirring constantly, cook until the sauce thickens (make sure it does not get too hot or the eggs will scramble). Set it in a warm spot on the stove.
• Grill the fish for 4 minutes per side, making sure not to burn the grape leaves.
• To serve, set one whole wrapped fish on a serving plate and top with the sauce.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients and brush on both exterior and cavity of fish. Place on a hot grill and cook for 4 to 5 minutes a side or until done. Debone and sprinkle parsley on filets. Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Pat the steaks dry and place in a large zip-top bag.
• Combine the garlic, oregano, vinegar, olive oil, adobo seasoning and salt in the bowl of a pilón or mortar and pestle, or a small food processor. Grind into a thin paste, then pour the marinade over the steak. Zip the bag then shake well to coat the meat, rubbing in gently as needed. Let rest on the counter for 10 to 20 minutes, or refrigerate overnight if you have time. Be sure to let the steak come to room temperature before grilling.
• If using a charcoal grill, start by building a fire with hardwood and kindling, then adding lump hardwood charcoal once the fire is kicking. Allow the fire to mellow. If using a gas grill, set the temperature to 500 degrees.
• Meanwhile, make the wasakaka: Combine the lime juice, parsley, cilantro, oregano, olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper in a small bowl and whisk to incorporate. If you'd like a creamier sauce, blend in a small food processor or blender. (Wasakaka will keep for 3 or 4 days in a sealed jar in the refrigerator.)
• Once the grill is ready, remove skirt steak from the bag and shake off excess marinade. Place on the grill and sear for 1 to 3 minutes. Using tongs, pull up the corner to ensure the steak has a good dark char, bordering on burned in places, before flipping, then cook for 1 more minute for rare, 2 minutes for medium-rare. Be careful not to overcook or steak will be tough.
• Remove steak from grill and let rest for 5 to 7 minutes. Slice into strips and pour over wasakaka, or serve sauce on the side. Taste and sprinkle with additional salt, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat large griddle to smoking point.
• Grease liberally with olive oil & bacon grease.
• Season & sear fish on both sides, turning carefully.
• Cook quickly for 3-5 minutes per side.
• Heat butter, garlic, & lemon juice to bubbling & serve over fish.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor charcoal grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Clean red snapper and score fish on both sides. Rub inside and outside with oil, then generously rub with blackened seasoning inside and outside.
• Stuff snapper with bell peppers, garlic, thyme, and orange, lime, and lemon slices.
• Place snapper on the hot grill and cook until fish easily flakes with a fork, 3 1/2 to 4 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium heat.
• Blend roasted peppers, mayo, garlic and ground red pepper in blender until smooth. Transfer to bowl; stir in cilantro.
• Cut banana leaf into 4 pieces, each about 12 inches square; place 2 pieces on work surface, with sides slightly overlapping. Top with 1/4 cup pepper sauce, 1 fish fillet and additional 1/4 cup sauce. Wrap leaves around fish. Repeat with remaining leaves, fish and 1/2 cup of the remaining sauce.
• Tie wrapped fish with additional banana leaf strips to secure closure. Grill, covered, 15 min. or until fish flakes easily with fork, turning after 8 min. Serve with remaining sauce.

Steps:

• Place snapper fillets in a glass baking dish and pour Italian dressing over top. Gently turn fish to evenly coat. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat. Make a tray with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
• Remove fish from the dressing and place on the foil tray. Place lemon slices and jalapenos on top. Discard any remaining dressing.
• Place the tray on the preheated grill and cook until fish begins to turn a nice, light color and flakes easily with a fork, 5 to 6 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Prepare grill.
• Rinse the snappers and pat dry with paper towels.
• Brush the fish, inside and out with oil and sprinkle well inside and out with salt and pepper.
• Place 3 sprigs of thyme inside each fish.
• Close the openings with small metal skewers.
• Lightly oil the grill and place fish on the rack 4 inches from the heat.
• Grill turning once, until cooked through 4-6 minutes per side.
• Serve immediately accompanied by the limes.

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Cut 1 orange into slices; place in the inside cavity of the fish. Place fish on banana leaves; brush generously with barbecue sauce on both sides. Wrap fish in leaves.
• Grill fish 35 to 40 min., turning several times, or until cooked through and fish flakes easily with a fork.
• Meanwhile, section remaining oranges by cutting a 1/2-inch thick slice off the top and bottom ends of oranges. Cut the peel and the pith away from the fruit with a sharp paring knife, using a downward motion that follows the shape of the orange. Cut the orange segments into small cubes; place in a medium bowl. Add any juice from oranges, hearts of palm, onions, cilantro and ham. Serve fruit salsa with fish.
