Be careful when testing for doneness, as steam will escape from the foil when you open it. A whole fish makes a dramatic entrée, best served family-style so guests can help themselves to this succulent dish. If you have extra fresh herbs on hand, garnish the platter with them. Ingredients:
1 (4-pound) cleaned whole red snapper |
cooking spray |
1 teaspoon extravirgin olive oil |
1 teaspoon salt, divided |
4 lemon slices |
4 large fresh basil leaves |
3 parsley sprigs |
3 mint sprigs |
2 thyme sprigs |
4 lemon wedges |
Directions:
1. Prepare grill. 2. Score fish by making 3 diagonal cuts on each side. Lay 1 (18 x 12–inch) sheet of foil flat on a work surface, and coat with cooking spray. Place fish in center of sheet; rub oil in fish cavity. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon salt in fish cavity; sprinkle remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt evenly on both sides of fish. Place lemon slices and next 4 ingredients (through thyme) in fish cavity. Wrap fish in foil, twisting ends to seal; place fish on grill rack. Grill 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness. Discard lemon slices and herbs. Serve fish with lemon wedges. |
