Grilled Fish Recipe (Step by Step Tips)
Grilled Fish, a simple yet healthy way to cook fish which makes it flavourful yet retains the clean subtle taste of the fish. Delicate fish is marinated with herbs, lemon, ginger, garlic, chillies and olive oil grilled to perfection. In this blog post, I have shared perfect grilled fish techniques which gives crispy skin, yet flaky fish.
Ingredients
- 500 grams Fish use tilapia, halibut or flounder
For Marination
- 4 tablespoon Lemon Juice
- 4 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1 tablespoon Ginger Garlic Paste 4 cloves garlic, 1 inch ginger ground
- 2 teaspoon Dry Red Chilli Flakes
- 3 tablespoon Coriander leaves finely chopped
- 1½ teaspoon Salt to taste
- 1 teaspoon Black Pepper Powder to taste
Instructions
- Take cleaned fish fillets, pat them dry with paper towel. Use a sharp knife to make deep slits all over the fish which makes the marination penetrate into the fish. Set aside.
- Mix all ingredients for marinate in a bowl. Taste and check for seasoning and lemon juice.
- Add the fish in this marination. Coat it well with marinate on all sides. Cover with plastic wrap and and let it marinate for 30 minutes in fridge. Remove the fish before 30 minutes of grilling so it will come to room temperature.
- Heat a nonstick grill pan, cast iron skillet or any nonstick skillet on high heat and oil it generously. It is important to use nonstick for grilling fish. So the fish skin doesn't stick to the pan.
- Once the pan is hot. Place fish in the pan and let it cook for 3 minute on medium high heat. Now flip over and cook for another 2 mins. Thats it fish is cooked. If you are using small fish, the cooking time will be less.
- Gently remove the fish and serve hot with lemon wedges and steamed vegetables or rice.
