Barbecued Snapper With Butter and Lemon image

Looking for fish recipes for the barbie for when we go on holiday next year. This one is from Super Food Ideas. The recipe just specified whole baby snapper, not necessary just red snapper. NOTE - you could use a 1.5kl whole snapper and allow for 20 to 30 minutes to cook through, turning half way through the cooking time.

  • Divide lemon and parsley between each fish's cavity.
  • Divide 1/8th of the butter in the cavities and the remainder divide and dot on the top of each fish and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place 1 piece baking paper in centre of 1 piece of foil (needs to be more that twice the length of the fish), place fish on top.

I'm not a fan of lemon, so I omitted it from the recipe. The fish was still delicious.

I had some trouble finding snapper, so I used tilapia instead. It turned out great!

The fish was a bit overcooked, but the sauce was still delicious. I'll try again and cook the fish for less time.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

This recipe is a keeper! The fish was flaky and moist, and the sauce was tangy and flavorful. I served it with roasted vegetables and it was a complete meal.

I've tried many snapper recipes, but this one is by far the best. The butter and lemon sauce is so simple, yet so flavorful. It really enhances the taste of the fish.
