You can create up to five timers

1 (1-pound) red snapper, cleaned

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 jalapeno, minced

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

5 tablespoons butter, plus more for greasing foil

1/4 pound okra, chopped

1 red bell pepper, diced

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

2 tablespoons white wine

 

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

 

Wash the fish thoroughly and dry on paper towels. Score both sides of fish 3 times. Combine the minced garlic and jalapeno and stuff mixture into each of the 6 slits. Rub the fish with salt and pepper. Let fish marinate for 30 minutes (or overnight in the refrigerator for more intense flavor.)

 

In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add the okra and bell pepper and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. Make a slit down the center of the fish's belly. Stuff the belly of the fish with the okra and peppers and the chopped parsley. Place the fish on a rectangular piece of buttered foil. Place the remaining butter on top of the fish and drizzle with with the white wine.

 

Seal the fish in the foil, but leave a slight opening to allow the steam to escape. Place the fish on a baking sheet and bake until cooked through, about 10 to 15 minutes.

 

Remove from the oven, and transfer from foil to a serving dish, along with the juices collected in the foil.

    The seasoning on the recipe left good flavor on the fish, but I would recomment using a smaller portion of fish than the recipe states. Overall, very good.
