Mustard-Grilled Red Snapper
Yield: Makes 4 servings
Red snapper is a mild-flavored, low fat fish. The fat that fish does contain is known as omega-3 fatty-acids, thought to provide a wide range of health benefits. Try jazzing up red snapper with this tangy mustard coating before grilling it. Fish is done when it is opaque and just begins to flake easily when tested with a fork.
Ingredients:
1/2
cup Dijon mustard
1
tablespoon red wine vinegar
1
teaspoon ground red pepper
4
red snapper fillets (about 6 ounces each)
Fresh parsley sprigs and red peppercorns (optional)
Preparation:
1.
Spray grid with nonstick cooking spray. Prepare grill for direct cooking.
2.
Combine mustard, vinegar and red pepper in small bowl; mix well. Coat fish thoroughly with mustard mixture.
3.
Place fish on grid. Grill, covered, over medium-high heat 8 minutes, turning halfway through grilling time, or until fish flakes easily when tested with fork. Garnish with parsley sprigs and red peppercorns.
