Ingredients

• ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
• 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 lemon, zested and sliced
• 2 (1 pound) whole red snappers, cleaned and scaled

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Mix parsley, olive oil, oregano, lemon zest, and garlic together in a small bowl.

Step 2

Rinse red snappers and pat dry with paper towels. Cut 3 diagonal slits across the top of each fish, cutting almost to the bone. Season the cavities with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Rub the parsley mixture on the inside and top of the fish, pushing the mixture into the slits. Place the fish in the center of the grill pan; season with salt and pepper.

Step 4

Place the grill pan in the Panasonic Countertop Induction Oven and press "Auto Cook." Select the Fish setting, 3, and 1-pound serving. Cook until an instead-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 130 degrees F (54 degrees C), about 20 minutes. Adjust time as needed. Serve with lemon slices.
