I have a whole 2 3/4 lb red snapper (sorry Marilyn). Anyone prepared one? Any suggestions?

I've used this recipe before, but I wrapped it in foil
and put it on the grill. Sorry don't remember how long it was on. But it was good!

The recipes abound. I've used the egg white method in the Caribbean but here, if not humid,
I manage without any egg.
Here's one by Tyler Florence. I usually just lay in some thyme and lemon slices, not a whole lot of other flavours.
It's nothing new, but if you haven't tried it before, it's a fun project.

Geez Curious, it may be too late but I love red snapper but never cooked it whole...
In fact, I bought frozen banana leaves about three weeks ago at Wong Kai Imports in Bradenton and they're still in the freezer to make a Thai-style grilled fish encased in banana leaves. Sorry to say perhaps I'm too late as Wong Kai is not open on Sunday.
However, I remember this one that looks delicious and was posted by CathyZ from Kauai. (See link)

Great suggestions, thanks everyone. I used Susan's recipe as I had ingredients as well as bok choy
on hand. I used the oven method as written and made bok choy and mushroom fried rice. The fish was delicious, thanks Susan! The mushroom fried rice not something I'd make again, but it did go well with the fish. Great fun trying to clean up the last of the fish scales that flew about as I was cleaning the fish.
