Grilled with citrus & herbs, garlic butter sauce, Charleston red rice, grilled asparagus

Rub the whole red snapper with olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Stuff the cavity with lemon and lime slices, and fresh herbs. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Marinate the Fish

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the snapper for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily.

Grill the Fish

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Stir in lemon juice and parsley. Keep warm.

Make the Sauce

In a large saucepan, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside. In the bacon fat, sauté onion, garlic, and bell pepper until softened. Add crushed tomatoes, rice, chicken broth, and Cajun seasoning. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes until rice is cooked.

Cook the Rice

Toss asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill for about 5-7 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
