Snapper with Cucumber Vinaigrette

  1. Light a grill or preheat the oven to 500.
  2. Using a small, sharp knife, peel the lemon, removing all the bitter white pith.
  3. Cut the lemon into 1/4-inch dice, discarding the seeds.
  4. Transfer the diced lemon to a medium bowl and add the tomatoes, cucumber, shallot, thyme and chives.
  5. Stir in the 1/4 cup of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Lay two 20-inch-square sheets of heavy-duty foil on top of each other, then fold them in half to form a rectangle.
  7. Fold up 2 inches on each side, neatly folding in the corners to form a low-sided box.
  8. Brush the foil with olive oil and set the fish on the foil.
  9. Season with salt and pepper and spoon 1/3 cup of the vinaigrette on each fillet.
  10. Using 2 long spatulas, set the foil package on a medium-hot grill and cook for about 15 minutes, or until the fish is just cooked through.
  11. Alternatively, roast the foil package on a cookie sheet in the oven for about 20 minutes.
  12. Transfer to a platter and serve with Braised Endives.
