Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Flying Fish

    Clean the flying fish thoroughly under cold running water. Pat dry with paper towels and sprinkle salt inside and out.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Fish

    In a bowl, mix together soy sauce, sake, mirin, and sesame oil. Place the flying fish in the marinade and let it sit for 20 minutes.

  3. 3

    Grill the Fish

    Preheat your grill to medium heat. Remove the fish from the marinade and place them on the grill. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the skin is crispy and the flesh is opaque.

  4. 4

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the fish from the grill and place them on a serving platter. Finely chop the green onions and sprinkle them over the top. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
