Spicy Grilled Fish

"This is a really tasty, economical and different way to enjoy fish! Lots of flavor from the marinade and easy clean up! Winners in my book. I am sure this would work very well on any firm, mild fish. When I made this I was a little crunched in the time department so I only got to marinade it for 1 hour and it was delicious. Plan ahead! This is best marinated for at least an hour but no more than 2 hours. In a pinch, just let it marinate while the grill is heating."

directions

  • Combine lemon juice, soy sauce, vegetable oil, ginger, garlic, green onions, minced onion, paprika and cayenne pepper and stir to mix well.
  • Place fish in a zipper seal bag and pour liquid mixture over it. Seal and marinate in the refrigerate for about 1 to 2 hours.
  • Oil grill grate or fish basket really well and preheat grill to medium high. Grill fish for 4 minutes on each side. Flip the fish only once and brush with reserved marinade when flipped.
  • NOTE: Fish is completely cooked when the color turns from translucent to opaque (white) or has reached a 150 degree F internal temperature. Resist the temptation to over-cook fish until it "flakes," which indicates the fish is becoming dry.

  1. Mmmm, yummy fish! I have a hard time getting my DH to eat fish, but he loved this one! I used whitefish fillets and lime juice instead of lemon. It marinated for about 30 mins because I was in a hurry, but they came out so moist and flavorful.That's probably why they weren't so red in the pic. Also, I used my cast iron skillet and not the grill on a rainy day. Thank you mama! Made for Bevy Tag.
