1
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. Place them in a shallow dish.
💡 Proffstips: Ensuring the fish is dry helps with searing and prevents sticking.
2
In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, chopped red chili, minced garlic, grated ginger, melted coconut oil, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
💡 Proffstips: Adjust chili amount based on your spice preference.
3
Pour the marinade over the fish fillets, ensuring they are well coated. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes at room temperature, or up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
4
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
💡 Proffstips: A clean and oiled grill is crucial for easy fish removal.
5
Carefully place the marinated fish fillets onto the hot grill. Grill for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
💡 Proffstips: Avoid overcooking, as fish can become dry quickly.
6
Remove the fish from the grill and transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped cilantro or parsley.
💡 Proffstips: Serve immediately with steamed rice, a fresh salad, or grilled vegetables.
