Grilled Fish

n

Grilled fish tastes excellent. In grilling the food to be prepared is placed on a grill (barbecue grill) and is cooked by radiating heat.

n

We need to marinate fish before grilling. The  fish can be steeped with a rich-tasting “marinade”. This marinade can give an aromatic and flavorful coating to the fish.

n

White fishes are excellent for grilling. The commonly used fishes are sea bass, halibut, mahi-mahi, escolar, wild cod, etc. Whole fillet or larger pieces of fishes can be used for grilling.

n

In this recipe, a flavorful paste is prepared and the fish is completely coated with this paste. After coating, the marinated fish is allowed to rest for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, you can preheat the oven and grill the fish.
