Grilled Red Snapper
Grilling snapper makes for a quick, easy and delicious meal.
6 snapper filets (or similar fish)
Salt and pepper to taste
1-2 cloves garlic, minced
2-3 lemons, thinly sliced
1/2 cup butter
Hickory chips, soaked in water
Season filets with salt and pepper. In saucepan, melt butter, add garlic and cook 1-2 minutes.
Arrange half the lemon slices in a shallow baking dish, add fish in a single layer and put remaining lemon slices on top. Pour seasoned butter over fish.
Add Hickory chips to slow coals, place dish on heavy-duty foil atop grill and close hood (make a tent with the foil if you do not have a covered grill).
Cook until fish flakes easily with a fork, 15-20 minutes. Baste occasionally with butter.
