Servings: 2

Ingredients

Fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons, finely chopped
Black pepper
1/2 teaspoon, freshly ground
Salt
1 teaspoon
Olive oil
3 tablespoons
Garlic
2 cloves, minced
Lime juice
2 tablespoons, freshly squeezed
Red snapper fillets
2 (6-ounce) fillets

Instructions

  1. In a small mixing bowl, combine the freshly squeezed lime juice, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to create the marinade.
  2. Place the red snapper fillets in a shallow dish and evenly pour the marinade over them. Ensure that both sides of the fillets are coated well. Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.
  3. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  4. Remove the red snapper fillets from the marinade, shaking off any excess. Place them on the hot grill, cooking each side for about 4-5 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Remove the grilled red snapper from the heat and immediately sprinkle with finely chopped fresh cilantro for an added layer of flavor.
  6. Serve hot with your choice of side dishes such as grilled vegetables or a light salad.
