Grilled Citrus Snapper

Fresh ginger gives this dish a taste of the Islands.

(serves 2)

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup bottled citrus marinade
• 1/4 cup green onion, chopped
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger root, minced
• 1 pound red-snapper filets
• 1 pound asparagus
• 1 lemon
• 1 garlic clove

Directions:

Prepare marinade by combining the first four ingredients in a bowl. Then pour marinade over snapper, flesh side down, and let set for 15 minutes. Prepare grill. Remove snapper from marinade and pat dry. Season snapper with salt and pepper. Grill skin side down on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals for 4 minutes. Place lid on the grill to cover, grilling snapper until just cooked through for another 4 minutes. * Carefully transfer snapper with a metal spatula to a platter and remove skin before serving. Serve with steamed asparagus tossed with lemon and garlic and season to taste.

*Note: Alternatively, snapper may be grilled in a hot, well-seasoned grill pan with a lid over moderate heat.
