Preparation Instructions

1

Prepare the Spice Mix

In a small bowl, combine paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

2

Season the Snapper

Rub the spice mix generously over both sides of the red snapper fillets. Let them sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.

3

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.

4

Grill the Snapper

Place the seasoned red snapper fillets on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and has a nice char.

5

Serve

Remove the snapper from the grill and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
