Whole Grilled Fish with simple salad is a
satisfying no-carb meal on our weekly menu.
After a lot of experiments with different fish marination, this is the best sauce put
together to use for White snapper /Red Snapper/Tilapia.
Please
do give it a try.
Here is
the recipe.
Ingredients
1 whole
White Snapper/ Red Snapper
For the
Marination Sauce
1 tbsp
Oyster Sauce
1 tbsp
Dark Soya sauce
5
cloves of Garlic finely chopped
1tsp
raw sugar
1/4th
tsp white pepper
1 tsp
freshly squeezed lime
½ green
chilly finely chopped
1 tbsp
olive oil
Fresh
coriander
fresh
basil for the garnish.
Procedure
Wash the whole fish thoroughly
well.
Place the fish on a chopping
board and score it by making vertical cuts along the length of the fish from
head to tail.
Turn the fish and repeat the same
on the other side.
Stir all the sauce ingredients
together in a bowl.
Keep the fish on an aluminum foil
and massage it with the sauce filling the scored part with the sauce as well.
Cover the foil over the fish such that it doesn’t touch the fish top and allows
it to cook well once covered rather than sticking to the foil.
Grill the fish in the foil
placing it on the baking tray for 15-20 minutes depending upon the size of the
fish.
Open the foil and let it get the grilled coating on top so also the sauces thicken up a little.
If the cuts or the scored parts
have shrunk a bit then it means the flesh is cooked.
Remove the fish out of the oven
and garnish it with fresh coriander and sweet basil finely chopped.
Enjoy the fresh bake with simple
onion tomato salad sprinkled with salt and lemon juice.
Tips
and Notes
We have
spread the whole sauce once for all and grilled the fish, but it can be poured
in installments taking a gap in between the grilling duration as well.
