While the snapper grills over thyme-scented smoke, stir up the three-ingredient sauce in a small skillet. Browning the almonds in butter makes them taste extra nutty. Ingredients:
6 (8-ounce) snapper or grouper fillets |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 teaspoon coarse-grain sea salt |
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper |
4 fresh thyme sprigs |
1/2 cup butter |
1/2 cup sliced almonds |
1/2 to 1 tablespoon grated orange rind |
Directions:
1. Rub fish fillets with oil. Sprinkle evenly with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper.
2. Arrange thyme sprigs on hot charcoal or hot lava rocks on grill. Coat food rack with vegetable cooking spray; place on grill over high heat (400° to 500°). Place fish on rack, and grill 5 to 6 minutes on each side or until fish flakes with a fork.
3. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat; add almonds, and sauté 5 minutes or until butter is brown. Remove from heat. Stir in orange rind. Pour sauce over fish. Garnish, if desired.
