Grilled Blue Fish Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium.
• Dress fish with oil, and lemon and lime juices. Season with pepper and salt. Be sure to rub all ingredients throughout fish and inside cavity. Stuff inside of fish with lemon wedges.
• Place in fish basket. Cook 10 to 15 minutes per side or until skin is slightly charred. Remove carefully. Serve with lemon.

Steps:

• Place bluefish in a shallow pan and pour the wine over the fish. Rub the fish well with the wine and let sit for 10 minutes. Remove the fish from the wine. Place whole thyme, lemon slices and garlic into the belly of the fish. Rub the fish all over with olive oil. Season well with salt and pepper. Place the fish on a grill over medium heat. Grill for about 10 minutes per side, or until the flesh is no longer translucent.

Steps:

• Clean and scale fish. Stuff abundant quantities of fresh herbs into the cavity, then add slices of lemon, and chopped garlic. Brush skin on both sides with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and if desired put into fish-grilling basket and clamp shut. Grill for approximately 6 minutes on each side, turning fish only once. Garnish with more fresh herbs and sliced lemon and serve. Roast potatoes and grilled summer vegetables go well with this dish. Tip: Bluefish caught early in the season, though smaller, are much less oily than those caught later in the summer.;

Steps:

• prepare charcoal or outdoor grill. when coals are hot, spread all fish fillets with mayonnaise thickly on both sides. sprinkle with pepper place on sheets of foil. grill without turning fish until it flakes. sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Start grill or preheat oven to 450 degrees. Rinse fillets, and pat dry. Season liberally with salt and pepper. Take two large sheets of aluminum foil and curl up the edges, making a tray large enough to hold fish and other ingredients. Rub foil with olive oil.
• Spread a third of the onion slices on the foil, followed by a third of the tomato slices. Place fillets over tomato and onion layers. Place remaining onion over fillets, and dot evenly with mayonnaise.
• Dot cream cheese pieces over onions. Squeeze juice of intact half lemon over everything. Remove stray lemon pits. Place remaining tomatoes over onions and fish. Salt again. Lay lemon slices over and around fish.
• Cover loosely with foil, and place on hot grill or in oven. Cook 12 to 15 minutes, or until fish is cooked through. Remove foil tray from grill or oven, and dot fish with butter. Serve with some of the juices.

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients except fish and lemon wedges and mix well. Using a pastry brush, paint the fish steaks liberally on both sides and set them aside, lightly covered with a piece of aluminum foil, to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
• Build up a fire, using good hardwoods if you're cooking in a fireplace or the best hardwood charcoal (not fake-wood briquettes) if you're using a grill. Let the fire burn brightly and die down until you have a nice bed of hot coals or embers. Large pieces of fish can be set directly on the grill, but to prevent smaller ones from falling through and burning up, you may want to use a special grid made for fish.
• When you're ready to cook, brush a little plain olive oil on the cooking surface and set it 4 to 6 inches from the source of heat.Arrange the fish steaks so that they have equal access to the heat source. Cook for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side, turning once. Test for doneness-fish should be opaque all the way through-by inserting the tip of a sharp knife near the bone or in the center of a boneless piece of fish. Remove immediately to a hot platter.
• The remaining marinade should be heated just to the boiling point and either poured over the cooked fish or passed at the table along with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat Grill.
• Lay pieces of Bluefish, skin side down, on UNGREASED aluminum foil.
• Allow enough foil to make a package, sealed at the ends and folded at the top, allowing room for fish to steam.
• Spread mayonnaise over the top of the fish, it should be very thick, if needed add more, the fish should look like a thickly frosted cake.
• Lay onion rings on top of fish in several layers, sprinkle with seasonings.
• Sprinkle with pepper and optional spices, drizzle lemon juice over top.
• Bring together foil and fold to make a seal lengthwise over fish, fold in ends.
• Remember to keep air space on top of fish.
• Place fish on preheated grill, close cover.
• Grill at medium-high heat, about 350-375 for 15 minutes, depending on thickness if fillet.
• After 15 minutes, carefully open package to check for doneness, you want it just barely done.
• Fish is done if it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
• Leaving foil wide open, use a sharp knife or two tined fork to make several holes in the bottom of the foil.
• Without disturbing the fish too much, make a few holes right through the fish and through the foil.
• Close the cover to the grill and allow the juices and mayonnaise to drip through the foil onto the fire, this will get very smokey but you get that delicate smoked flavor.
• After a few minutes of "smoking", remove foil and fish by just sliding if off the grill on to a platter or lifting it, foil and all carefully as not to break it.
• Using a large spatula, gently slide fish off the foil onto a serving plate, the skin of the fish will stay stuck to the foil.
• Enjoy.
