Tips:
- Choose the freshest fish possible. Look for fish that has bright, clear eyes, red gills, and a firm, springy body.
- Clean the fish thoroughly before cooking. Remove the scales, gut the fish, and rinse it inside and out with cold water.
- Score the fish before grilling. This will help the fish cook evenly and prevent it from curling up.
- Season the fish liberally with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Grill the fish over medium heat for 10-12 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through. The fish is cooked through when it flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve the fish immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular sides for grilled red snapper include rice, vegetables, and lemon wedges.
