Ingredients
-
cooking spray
-
2 pounds skin-on red snapper fillets
-
2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
-
1 pinch garlic salt, or to taste
-
1 pinch ground red chile pepper, or to taste
-
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
-
1 lime
-
2 tablespoons butter
Directions
-
Spray a baking dish with cooking spray. Place red snapper skin-side down in the baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with garlic, garlic salt, and red pepper. Spread cilantro evenly over the fish; squeeze lime evenly on top.
-
Marinate in the refrigerator, 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Melt butter and pour evenly over the fish.
