Salt-Grilled (Broiled) Fish
- 4 small fish, like red snapper, 3/4 to 1 pound each, gilled, gutted, and scaled, heads may be on or off
- Coarse salt
- Lemon wedges for serving
- Preheat the broiler; the rack should be about 4 inches from the heat source.
- Rinse the fish well and dry it thoroughly.
- Cut 3 or 4 diagonal gashes on both sides of each fish, right down to the bone.
- Sprinkle liberally with the salt, rubbing a bit so the salt penetrates the gashes.
- Put the fish on a broiling pan, preferably nonstick, and place under the broiler.
- Cook for about 5 minutes or until well browned, rotating the pan if necessary to give all the fish even heat.
- Turn and repeat on the other side.
- Serve immediately, with lemon wedges.
