Tips On Preparing Fish

When grilling fish, always make sure the grill is clean and preheated for at least 20 minutes. The grill should be coated well with oil to prevent sticking. Pour olive oil onto a small towel, and rub the oil on the grill grate usings tongs to hold the towel.

The skin should be left on the fish to help hold it together.
It should be placed on the grill skin side down.
To create grill marks, rotate the fish 1/4 turn halfway through the grilling time of each side of the fish.

A common problem when preparing fish is overcooking, resulting in a dry texture. Properly cooked fish should be just opaque, flaky and moist. Fish should be cooked to internal temperature of 145 degree, allowing for carryover cooking once the fish is removed from the grill or oven.
