Ingredients

• 4 fillets red snapper fillets
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 piece lime
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup fresh strawberries
• 1 piece avocado
• 0.25 piece red onion
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
• 1 piece jalapeño pepper
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 teaspoon honey

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Step 2

Pat the red snapper fillets dry with paper towels. Brush both sides of the fillets with olive oil.

Step 3

Cut the lime in half and squeeze half of it over the fillets. Save the other half for serving.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the seasoning evenly over both sides of the fillets.

Step 5

Place the fillets on the preheated grill, skin-side down (if they have skin). Cook for 4-6 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 6

While the fish is grilling, prepare the strawberry avocado salsa. Dice the strawberries and avocado into small cubes, and finely chop the red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño (remove seeds for less heat).

Step 7

In a medium bowl, combine the strawberries, avocado, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño. Add lime juice and honey, then gently toss everything together to coat. Adjust seasoning with additional lime juice or a pinch of salt, if needed.

Step 8

Once the red snapper is cooked, carefully remove it from the grill and transfer to a serving platter.

Step 9

Top the grilled red snapper with generous spoonfuls of strawberry avocado salsa.

Step 10

Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of citrus flavor. Enjoy!
