This vibrant red snapper with sambal is an excellent choice for a light yet flavourful weeknight meal. The delicate, flaky white fish is enhanced by a punchy marinade of lime juice, fish sauce, and sambal oelek, perfectly balancing salty, sour, and spicy notes. Scoring the skin allows these bold Southeast Asian flavours to penetrate deep into the fillets, ensuring every bite is seasoned to perfection.
As a diabetes-friendly main course, this dish is naturally high in protein and low in carbohydrates, making it a nutritious option for those monitoring their blood sugar. The quick grilling method keeps the fish succulent while creating charred, crispy edges on the skin. Serve it alongside a crisp green salad or steamed tenderstem broccoli for a healthy, balanced dinner that feels truly sophisticated.
