Whole Grilled Snapper with Tomatoes, Pine Nuts, and Brown Butter Sauce
Recipe courtesy Chris Klaic

Ingredients
Marinade:
2 cups chopped yellow onion
1 cup chopped red onion
1/2 cup chopped scallion
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
3 tablespoons chopped thyme leaf
3 tablespoons chopped rosemary
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 cup olive oil
Salt
4 whole snappers, cleaned, scaled and de-boned

Sauce:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound oven-dried tomatoes
4 teaspoons chopped basil
1 cup butter
1 cup toasted pine nuts
Salt and pepper

Directions
Mix marinade ingredients in a large bowl. Stuff the
snapper cavity with the marinade ingredients. Tie snapper with kitchen string to
keep the ingredients inside of fish. Marinate in the refrigerator for 4 hours.
Preheat the grill. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
For sauce, heat up olive oil in pan. Cook tomatoes for 3 to 4 minutes. Add basil

and butter and cook for 3 minutes. Add pine nuts and season with salt and
pepper.
Place the snapper on an oiled grill and cook until there are grill marks on both
sides, about 2 minutes per side. Place on a sheet pan or in a baking dish and
roast until the fish is cooked through, about 15 more minutes. Serve snapper with
the sauce.
