  • Take the frozen icefish out of the freezer ahead of time and move it to the bottom shelf of the refrigerator. Leave it there overnight, or for the whole day. Thawing the fish slowly this way is better for both its flavor and its nutritional value. Never thaw fish in the microwave or in hot water. Rinse the fish thoroughly under running water (and, if needed, scale, gut, and remove the heads), pat it dry with paper towels, and put it in a large bowl. Drizzle it with vegetable oil (olive or refined sunflower oil both work), then sprinkle with salt and ground black pepper. Freshly ground pepper is ideal — it adds extra aroma. Season the fish with any spices you like, such as ground coriander or nutmeg. Dried herbs like thyme or rosemary are also great with fish, as is an Italian or Provençal herb blend. Rub the fish all over with your hands, working the oil and seasonings both outside and in the cavity. Let it sit for 10–15 minutes while you heat up the grill. Oil the grill grate and lay the prepared fish on it. Grill the icefish for 3–4 minutes, then flip it and grill for another 3–4 minutes. Serve the fish hot, with a squeeze of lemon juice over the top. That's how quickly fish cooks on the grill! And the aroma is so good the whole household — and maybe the neighbors — will come running. Enjoy!
