Grilled Stuffed Red Snapper
Need From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes around 50 minutes.
Instructions
Preheat coals in a covered grill to high heat.
To Make Stuffing: Melt 2 tablespoons butter or margarine in a skillet.
Saute and stir the mixture over medium-high heat till the bread crumbs are browned.
Remove the bread crumbs to a mixing bowl.
Melt 1 tablespoon butter or margarine in the skillet and saute the onions, celery and garlic until tender; add to bread crumbs in mixing bowl, then stir in shrimp, crab, parsley, salt and pepper and toss gently.
Cut foil to form a double-thickness 18x12-inch rectangle.
Lay the fish fillets on the double thickness of foil. Mound the stuffing on top of the fillets.
Curl up the edges of the foil to form a tray. In a covered grill, arrange the preheated coals at either side of the grill. Test for medium heat above the center of the grill.
Place the fish in foil in the center of the grill rack. Cover and grill for 20 to 25 minutes or just until the fish flakes easily.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Fish can be paired with Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. One wine you could try is Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio. It has 4.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 26 dollars.
