Steve M Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 I just got back from a great vacation down on Key Biscayne and was inspired to do a cuban cook. This was the first time I have tried fish on the kk. it won't be the last. I first made the "sauce" to have with the fish. It looks a lot like guacamole but has a few other interesting ingredients; olives with pimientos, capers, and olive oil. I pulled out the juicer for some lime juice. I only needed a couple tablespoons but it is the summer and I tend to go through a lot of limes so I made extra. Next was a couple of avocados. They get mashed up with the lime juice and then the diced olives with pimientos and some capers. Add a little olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Finished product. The snapper was already gutted and scaled. I filled the cavity with thin slices of limes, onions, and some cilantro sprigs. I ran a few toothpicks through it to keep it closed. I cut a few slits on both sides, brushed with EVOO, and added kosher salt and pepper. this is the basket I got from Keith at Octoforks. This probably would have been great on the rotisserie that it was designed for but I also needed to do a few chicken kebobs so I just used it right on the grate to make it easier to flip. Everything on the grill. Finished up and off the grill. Everything came out great. We also had some cilantro lime rice and black beans. Nice dinner. The next to last night we were there, we were treated to a fantastic light show by mother nature. A storm cell came up the bay while the sun was setting behind it.
