Mackerel on the grill on the grill on coals in foil baked

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Mackerel fish is inexpensive and quite popular, but cooked on the grill, mackerel turns out to be delicious and will satisfy the requirements of the most fastidious. Take the fish chilled and preferably larger in size. If you have only frozen fish available, it doesn't matter! It is necessary to defrost it correctly: After the freezer, place it in the refrigerator for 7 hours and only then defrost it at room temperature

2. Step 2:

   

   Wash the mackerel well, gut it and be sure to remove the gills. If you leave them, the fish will have a bitter taste.

3. Step 3:

   

   Make several diagonal incisions on the skin with a very sharp knife. This will help the fish to marinate better, and then fry evenly.

4. Step 4:

   

   From lemon, we only need lemon juice for the marinade, so you can take the ready-made lemon juice of factory production. If you squeeze the juice yourself, pre-wash the lemon with very hot water - so it will give more juice.

5. Step 5:

   

   Pour vegetable oil over the fish. It can be absolutely anything: from the most budget sunflower to expensive elite olive. But since we are going to heat-treat the oil - fry the fish, it is best to use refined oils.

6. Step 6:

   

   Salt the fish.

7. Step 7:

   

   Pepper. At this stage, you can add other favorite spices and seasonings to the fish: Provencal herbs, dried or fresh thyme, garlic.

9. Step 8:

   

   Leave the fish to marinate for a while. From 15 minutes to 1 day.

10. Step 9:

    

    Meanwhile, set fire to the wood in the grill. To prepare delicious and healthy dishes, it is necessary to use not boards from the fence for cooking coals, but good firewood, preferably birch.

11. Step 10:

    

    Wait until the firewood burns out and hot coals remain.

12. Step 11:

    

    Put the grill on the grill. Lay out the mackerel. The fish is fried fast enough, but turn it over every 5-7 minutes. So the fish will not burn and will be fried evenly.

13. Step 12:

    

    It may be necessary to repeat the flipping procedure 2-3 times. That is, you need to do this until the mackerel is finally ready.

14. Step 13:

    

    Well, our fragrant golden fish is ready. Bon appetit!
