How to Make Asian Style Grilled Tilapia
- In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce (2 tablespoons), honey (1 tablespoon), rice vinegar (1 tablespoon), minced garlic (2 cloves), grated ginger (1 tablespoon), sesame oil (1 teaspoon), and red pepper flakes (1/4 teaspoon, or to taste).
- Place tilapia fillets (4, about 6 ounces each) in a resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring they are fully coated.
- Marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator for maximum flavor.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Grill the tilapia for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve immediately. Garnish with chopped green onions (optional) and sesame seeds (optional).
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
