Spoon the spice mixture over the snapper and bake for about 30-35 minutes, basting frequently. Bake the fish until a metal skewer can easily be inserted into the fish and, if left in for 5 seconds, feels warm. 5. While the fish is roasting, cook the rice.

Place each serving on top of the coconut rice and spoon some of the sauce from the roasting pan over the snapper.
