Preparation

Marinating the Snapper

Combine Marinade

In a bowl, combine all the marinade ingredients.

Marinate Snapper

Place the snapper fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them.

Ensure all bones are removed from the fish to avoid choking hazards.

Refrigerate

Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.

Let the fish marinate overnight for extra depth of flavor.

Preparing the Mango Chutney

Combine Ingredients

In a saucepan, combine diced mangoes, red bell pepper, red onion, vinegar, brown sugar, chili flakes, and a pinch of salt.

Use fresh mangoes for a naturally sweet and tangy flavor.

Simmer

Simmer over medium heat for about 20 minutes until thickened, stirring occasionally.

Cool

Let cool to room temperature before serving.

Cooking Process

Grilling the Snapper

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill snapper fillets for 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through.

Reducing the Chutney

Simmer the chutney until it reaches a jam-like consistency.

Final Touch

Squeeze fresh lime juice over grilled snapper before serving.
