Equipment

  • Aluminum Foil
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board
  • Grill or Oven
  • Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 3 Whole Snappers Cleaned and Descaled
  • 3 Tablespoons Fish Seasoning
  • 6 Cups Shredded Callaloo
  • 6 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
  • 1 Cup Bell Pepper Diced
  • 1 Medium Onion Diced

Instructions
 

  • Add the cleaned fish to a bowl and add the fish seasoning. Carefully use your hand to massage the spice onto the fish, into the belly and head.
  • Place each seasoned fish on a piece of aluminum foil, enough aluminum to cover the fish twice. This will allow all the juices from the fish and vegetables to remain in the foil.
  • In another bowl, mix the shredded callaloo, diced bell peppers and diced onions and combine, then separate into ⅓.
  • Add each ⅓ of vegetable mixture to each fish, stuffing the belly first then add the remainder to the top of the fish.
  • Place 2 tablespoons of butter on each fish then close all ends of the aluminum foil as tight as possible to secure the ingredients.

Oven

  • Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees farhenheit and bake for 40 minutes on a baking tray.

Grill

  • Add the foiled fish to the heated grill (gas or coal) and grill for 30 minutes or until the aluminum is charred.
