Honey-Lime Red Snapper

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 5 min. + marinating Broil: 15 min. YIELD: 4 servings.
“If you can’t find snapper, you can substitute most any firm white fish. And if you can’t find key lime juice, use regular lime juice.” —Ken Hulme, Venice, Florida note: as reader suggests, regular lime juice can be used if you can't find key lime juice

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup Key lime juice
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 4 red snapper fillets (6 ounces each)
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder

Directions

  • 1. In a small bowl, combine lime juice and honey. Pour 1/2 cup into a container with a lid. Add the fish and turn to coat; refrigerate for up to 1 hour. Place remaining mixture in a small saucepan.
  • 2. Drain fish and discard marinade. Sprinkle fillets with chili powder; place on a greased broiler pan.
  • 3. Broil 4-6 in. from the heat until fish flakes easily with a fork, 12-15 minutes.
  • 4. Meanwhile, bring reserved lime juice mixture to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until reduced by half. Spoon over fillets.
