Description

The sweet, delicate flavor of red snapper shines in this easy grilled recipe that calls for just 3 other ingredients.

Ingredients

6 (5 ounce) red snapper fillets
1 (8 ounce) bottle Italian-style salad dressing
1 serving cooking spray
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 jalapeno pepper, thinly sliced

Directions

1 Place snapper fillets in a glass baking dish and pour Italian dressing over top. Gently turn fish to evenly coat. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
2 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat. Make a tray with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
3 Remove fish from the dressing and place on the foil tray. Place lemon slices and jalapenos on top. Discard any remaining dressing.
4 Place the tray on the preheated grill and cook until fish begins to turn a nice, light color and flakes easily with a fork, 5 to 6 minutes per side.
