Ingredients

Two 2-pound whole red snappers, cleaned

2 Roma tomatoes, sliced

12 sprigs fresh thyme

6 sprigs fresh rosemary

1 cup fresh parsley leaves and stems

Directions

  1. Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Rub the fish all over with the tomato bouillon, pepper and garlic. Stuff the fish cavities with the lemon slices, tomato slices and herbs. Add the fish to the grill and cook until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 6 to 7 minutes on each side. Transfer to a platter and serve.

I have made this recipe multiple times and it’s fabulous. Bronzino is an excellent alternative and so is chicken bouillons. I have also incorporated the ingredients  in a whole roasted chicken recipe
