Smoked Whole Snapper

Smoked Whole Snapper

Who isn’t impressed with a smoked whole fish? This snapper is easy, too. Pull together a few ingredients and let the smoker do the rest of the work. Garnish with lime wedges to serve.

Ingredients :

• 2 (1 pound) whole snapper, cleaned and scaled
• 3 limes, sliced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 teaspoons cajun seasoning (such as tdon's cajun goods®)
• 2 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Directions

1. Heat the smoker to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Pat fish dry; cut 3 small slits on each side of fish and stuff with lime slices. In a small bowl combine olive oil, Cajun seasoning, garlic, and parley. Coat fish with mixture.
3. Smoke fish until it flakes easily with a fork, about 25 minutes. An instant read thermometer, inserted near the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Garnish with lime wedges to serve.
