Thread: Homemade marinade

What’s your fav marinade for grilling fish ?

Never tried to marinate fish but know that citrus will cook it so if you make 1 don't leave it in there long,had grilled grouper in Melbourne Florida 1 time that had a sauce served with it that was outta this world,wish I knew how to make it

Not so much a marinade as a basting sauce I call 1-2-3.

I use two turning baskets to grill two one-gallon Ziplock bags of mackerel fillets.
Melt a stick of butter in a bowl in microwave.
Add 1 tsp garlic POWDER (not salt).
Add 2 tsp lemon-pepper seasoning.
Add 3 tsp ground parsley flakes.
Stir and add 1/2 a beer (save the other half for later ;-)

I use the teaspoon to ladle a bit on the fillets after turning.
Helps to season and keep moist.
The other half of beer keeps me moist ;-)

Serve fish HOT off the grill, or let cool and crumble into chunky pieces for fish salad.

Hope this is too your liking!

Very seldom marinade fish, fresh fish doesn't need it.

But I do baste with olive oil or butter, sometimes those get mixed with various herbs and spices.
Sometimes they get cooked in a sauce.
And sometimes topped with a nice salsa or chutney.
