Jerked Oriental Grilled Red Snapper

Ingredients:

4 scallions, diced

3 garlic cloves, diced

2 tablespoons Jerk Rub

Zest of 2 lemons

2 red snappers (about 2 pounds each) gutted with heads left on

¼ cup lemon juice

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons olive oil

Method:

Prepare a fire in the grill, and be sure to grease the grid itself. Mix the scallions, half the garlic, 1 tablespoon of the Jerk Rub, and the lemon zest in a bowl. Spread half of this mixture inside each of the snappers. Mix together the remaining garlic and 1 tablespoon Jerk Rub, as well as the lemon juice, soy sauce, and olive oil as a baste for the fish.

When the coals are white hot, place the fish on the grill. Baste several times during cooking. Grill the fish until just done, 8 to 10 minutes a side.

Serve hot with rice.
