Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cleaning the Fish

    Rinse the jackfish under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. Remove the scales and guts carefully.

  2. 2

    Marinating the Fish

    In a bowl, combine salt, rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Place the cleaned jackfish in the marinade and let it sit for about 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Grilling the Fish

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Remove the fish from the marinade and place it on the grill. Grill each side for about 4-5 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

  4. 4

    Serving

    Once grilled, remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with sliced lemon and chopped green onions before serving.
