HOW TO GRILL FISH

Things You’ll Need:

  • Barbecue Grill
  • Charcoal Lighter 
  • Grill Basket
  • Grill Utensils
  • Wire Grill Brush
  • Groceries
  • fish fillets - one per person
  • salt and pepper
  • vegetable oil 

Step 1:
Light your grill and set it at its highest heat setting. Let it heat up for at least 20 minutes or so.

Step 2:
Check the fish fillets. None should be more than an inch or so thick.

Step 3:
 Season the fish well with salt and pepper or your desired dry seasoning.

Step 4:
Make sure that you have all your utensils next to the grill, along with a clean plate or dish to hold the cooked fish.

Step 5:
Oil the grill grate lightly, then repeat. This coat of oil will prevent the fish from sticking and will promote the formation of grill marks.

Step 6:
Lay the fish in the center of the grill directly above the heat source. There should be an audible sizzle. Avoid cooler sections of the grill and indirect heat.

Step 7:
Wait about 2 minutes, then slide the prongs of a broiler fork between the bars of the grill grate and slide them under the fish. Gently lift up a section of fish to check the cooking and look for the formation of grill marks.

Step 8:
When grill marks form, use the broiler fork to lift up a corner of the fillet, and slide a spatula under the fish.

Step 9:
Turn the fish over and cook the other side.

Step 10:
 Use the broiler fork to flake open a section of one fillet to check for doneness. If the interior of the fillet is no longer translucent, the fish is cooked.

Step 11:
Remove the fillets as soon as they're done.
