Chef’s Tip:

Preparation


Preparing the Salsa

1

Combine Ingredients

In a mixing bowl, combine pineapple, passion fruit pulp, red bell pepper, red onion, and cilantro.

2

Add Lime Juice and Salt

Add lime juice and sprinkle with salt. Mix well.

3

Chill Salsa

Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Letting the salsa chill enhances the flavors and melds them beautifully.

Marinating the Snapper

1

Season the Snapper

Rub the snapper fillets with olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper.

Ensure snapper is fresh; the smell should be clean like the ocean.

2

Marinate

Let them marinate for about 15 minutes.

3

Preheat the Grill

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Cooking Process


1

Grilling the Snapper

Place the snapper skin-side down on the grill. Grill for 5-7 minutes on each side until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Use medium-high heat.
