Spiced Cod Fillet On The Grill Recipes

PERFECT GRILLED COD

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat (375 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit).
• Bring the cod to room temperature for about 15 minutes.
• Pat the cod dry with a clean towel. Rub it with the olive oil and sprinkle it with the kosher salt and fresh ground pepper. Then cover it with the homemade blackened seasoning or seafood seasoning on all sides.
• Grill the cod over indirect heat for 4 minutes, until it releases from the grates. Flip and cook another 2 to 4 minutes, until the internal temperature is 130 degrees (right when the cod starts to flake when pulled with a fork). Allow to rest for a few minutes, then serve.

GRILLED COD

Steps:

• Stack about 15 charcoal briquettes into a grill in a pyramid shape. If desired, drizzle coals lightly with lighter fluid and allow to soak for 1 minute before lighting coals with a match. Allow fire to spread to all coals, about 10 minutes, before spreading briquettes out into the grill; let coals burn until a thin layer of white ash covers the coals. Lightly oil the grates.
• Season both sides of cod with Cajun seasoning, lemon pepper, salt, and black pepper. Set fish aside on a plate. Heat butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, stir in lemon juice and green onion, and cook until onion is softened, about 3 minutes.
• Place cod onto oiled grates and grill until fish is browned and flakes easily, about 3 minutes per side; baste with butter mixture frequently while grilling. Allow cod to rest off the heat for about 5 minutes before serving.

SPICED COD FILLET ON THE GRILL

Steps:

• Dust cod with cumin, salt, pepper and cayenne.
• Spread mustard over fish.
• If grilling use the butter to baste, this of course means you'll need to melt the butter.
• Grill for about 3 minutes per side.
• You could alternatively broil for 3-4 minutes per side in the oven.
• In this case, place the fish on a broiling pan and dot each fillet with butter before putting it in the oven (on broil).
• Either way the fish flesh will be white, firm and flake easily with a fork when done.
• Serve with lemon wedges.
