 To make the spice mix, place all spices in a small food processor work bowl

 and refrigerate (it may be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated for


 several days).


 


 Preheat a coal or gas grill to medium-high. Pour the blackening mix onto a


 plate and dredge the snapper in it to evenly coat both sides. Place on the


 hot grill and cook 4 minutes. Turn and cook an additional 3 to 5 minutes,


 depending on the thickness of the fish. Fish is done when it separates


 easily when a fork is inserted and twisted in the thickest part. Serve


 immediately, passing the aioli.
