- 1 (2 pound) whole red snapper, cleaned and scaled
- 5 lemons, juiced, divided
- 1/4 cup sweet soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon finely minced fresh ginger
- 3 tomatoes, chopped
- 1 bunch chives, chopped
- 1/2 red chile pepper, sliced
- 1 pinch white sugar, or to taste (optional)
- salt to taste (optional)
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Place snapper on a large plate; squeeze juice of 1 lemon onto each side and inside cavity. Set snapper aside to marinate, about 10 minutes. Combine soy sauce, butter, and ginger in a small bowl. Mix remaining lemon juice, tomatoes, chives, chile pepper, sugar, and salt together in a separate bowl.
- Heat a large skillet to smoking hot over medium-high heat. Cook snapper until just beginning to brown, about 1 minute per side.
- Place snapper on preheated grill; brush with soy mixture on each side. Grill, basting occasionally with soy mixture, until snapper flakes easily with a fork, 4 to 6 minutes per side.
- Transfer snapper to serving platter. Pour tomato mixture over snapper to serve.
