Ingredients for Asian Honey Grilled Fish

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • White Onion
  • Lime, Juice Of
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce

How to Make Asian Honey Grilled Fish

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup honey, 1/4 cup finely chopped onion, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1-2 finely minced jalapeno peppers (adjust to your spice preference), and 1 tablespoon grated ginger.
  2. Place fish fillets in a resealable bag or shallow dish.
  3. Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring they are fully coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
  5. Place the marinated fish fillets on the preheated grill.
  6. Grill for 5 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
  7. Remove from grill and serve immediately. Garnish with extra chopped green onions or sesame seeds, if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
