6 (6- to 8-oz) red snapper fillets (1/2 inch thick) with skin
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 1/2 tablespoons finely grated fresh lime zest

Accompaniment: lime wedges

Preheat broiler and lightly oil a shallow baking pan (1 inch deep).

Pat fish dry, then arrange, skin sides up, in 1 layer in baking pan. Brush
both sides of fish with 3 tablespoons oil total and sprinkle with salt and
pepper. Toss together cilantro, garlic, and zest in a small bowl.

Broil fish 6 inches from heat, without turning over, until just cooked
through, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer fish, skin sides up, with a metal
spatula to a platter, then sprinkle with cilantro mixture and drizzle with
remaining 3 tablespoons oil.

Makes 6 servings.
