Ingrediënten
- 2 whole snoek, cleaned and gutted
- 4 teentjes knoflook, fijngehakt
- 2 el olive oil
- 1 tsp zout
- ½ tsp zwarte peper
- ½ tsp smoked paprika (optioneel)
- ½ kopje abrikozenjam
- 1 el citroensap
- 1 tsp mustard (optioneel)
Instructies
- Prepare the fish: Rinse and pat dry. Score the skin diagonally on both sides to help it cook evenly.
- Season: Mix olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika. Rub all over the fish, including inside the cavity.
- Make the glaze: Combine apricot jam, lemon juice, and mustard in a small bowl and stir until smooth.
- Grill the snoek: Preheat a medium-heat grill. Place the fish on the grill, skin side down first. Cook for 5–7 minutes per side, depending on thickness.
- Glazuur: In the last 5 minutes, brush the apricot mixture over the fish. Let it caramelize slightly but don’t burn.
- Serveren: Place the fish on a platter and serve immediately with extra apricot jam on the side, along with pap, salad, or roasted vegetables.
