How to Make Spicy Grilled Fish Fillets

  1. Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. This helps them grill better and prevents sticking.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon garam masala, ½ teaspoon chili powder (adjust to your spice preference), ¼ teaspoon turmeric, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
  3. Generously baste both sides of the fish fillets with the spice mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  4. Preheat your grill (George Foreman or regular – if using a regular grill, line it with foil to prevent sticking). Grill the fish for 5-7 minutes per side, basting frequently with the remaining spice mixture, until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets and your grill.
  5. Remove from the grill and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh cilantro or lime wedges, if desired.
