I got this Red Snapper at Whole Foods, it was about 3 pounds, and took about 20 to 25 minutes on the grill so easy and tasty. I used a Nuoc Cham (the versatile Vietnamese dipping sauce as both a marinade and dip.
Nuoc Cham
1/2 cup fish sauce-3 Crabs is best
1/2 cup palm sugar-brown sugar works if you can't find palm
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
1/ teaspoon chopped fresh oregano
2 tablespoons water
Mix all ingredients.
Make three slit in both sides of the fish and insert a lemon and garlic slice.
Take 1/4 cup of the nuoc cham and add 2 tablespoons of sesame oil and brush the fish (including the cavity with it. Let sit 1 hour before grilling.
Stuff the cavity with lemons and herbs.
Place the fish on the grill over medium high heat, with the cavity toward the front (this helps when you flip the fish by just rolling it over it dorsal fin). Grill for 10 to 12 minutes on each side.
