Smoked Whole Snapper

Who isn’t impressed with a smoked whole fish? This snapper is easy, too. Pull together a few ingredients and let the smoker do the rest of the work. Garnish with lime wedges to serve.

Ingredients:

2 (1 pound) whole snapper, cleaned and scaled
3 limes, sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons cajun seasoning (such as tdon's cajun goods®)
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Direction

Heat the smoker to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Pat fish dry; cut 3 small slits on each side of fish and stuff with lime slices. In a small bowl combine olive oil, Cajun seasoning, garlic, and parley. Coat fish with mixture.
Smoke fish until it flakes easily with a fork, about 25 minutes. An instant read thermometer, inserted near the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Garnish with lime wedges to serve.

Roast Chicken Thighs with Tomato-Tapioca Porridge

Wylie Dufresne is a genius at using avant-garde techniques to turn everyday ingredients into miraculous dishes. For instance, at his Manhattan restaurant WD-50, the revamped menu includes chicken confit with peas and carrots: The “peas” are actually carrots coated with freeze-dried pea powder. But when F&W challenged the Top Chef Masters contestant to create a fast recipe, he simply roasted the carrots to serve with chicken and tomato-infused tapioca porridge. It takes three chefs 12 hours to prepare the WD-50 dish, but less than an hour for a home cook to make this one.
