Whole Grilled Local Snapper
Recipe courtesy Trey Foshee from George?s at the Cove

Ingredients
6 green garlic
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
1 tablespoon Meyer lemon peel, minced
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons Meyer lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground white pepper, to taste
3 (1 1/2 to 2 pound) whole red snappers, scaled and gutted

Directions
Slice the tender portion of the green garlic thin and
discard the tough stem ends. In a mortar and pestle, crush the sliced green garlic

to puree, add the thyme leaves, the lemon peel, and olive oil and work into a
paste. Add the juice and season with salt and pepper.
Slash the fish three times on both sides all the way to the bone and rub the
marinade on the fish and season well. Grill over medium-low heat, turning half way
through. Grilling time should take 15 to 20 minutes.
