- Spray the skin side of the snapper with vegetable cooking spray. Season the flesh side generously with the Mexican style rub.
- Slice the limes into thin rounds and the jalapeños lengthwise. Lay the limes, jalapeño slices and cilantro sprigs directly on the grate, then set the snapper fillet on top so it does not stick.
- Cook the snapper for 10-15 minutes, until the flesh turns white and flakes easily with a fork.
- Take the fish off the grill and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Warm the corn tortillas directly on the grate for about 30 seconds per side. Double up the tortillas, add portions of fish to each, and top with grated cabbage, cilantro-lime crema, pickled red onion or your favourite toppings.
