Ingredients
- whole red snapper - 1.5 pounds (scaled and gutted)
- thyme leaves - 10 sprigs (leaves stripped off the stems)
- parsley - 6 sprigs (minced)
- basil leaves - 8 leaves (minced)
- garlic - 5 cloves (minced)
- olive oil - 2 tablespoons
- lemon juice - 1 tablespoon (freshly squeezed)
- salt - 1/2 teaspoon
- chicken bouillon powder - 1/2 teaspoon
- white pepper - 1/4 teaspoon (ground)
Instructions
- Prepare the marinade: Strip thyme leaves from stems, mince parsley and basil leaves. Combine thyme, parsley, basil, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, chicken bouillon powder, and ground white pepper in a bowl and mix well.
- Prepare the fish: Trim the fins of the whole red snapper using kitchen scissors. Make diagonal cuts across both sides of the fish to allow the marinade to penetrate.
- Dry the fish: Pat the fish dry with paper towels to help achieve a nice crust when cooking.
- Marinate the fish: Brush half of the marinade on each side of the fish, making sure to get the marinade into the slits, head, and cavity. Let the fish marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Bake the fish: Place the marinated fish on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
- Brush with oil: Remove the fish from the oven and brush it with a little olive oil to help it gain color on the outside.
- Broil the fish: Set the oven to low broil (or broil if low broil is unavailable). Place the fish back in the oven and broil for 2 to 5 minutes until the top gains a bit of color. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
- Rest and serve: Remove the fish from the oven and let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
