Grilled Tilapia - Bar-B-Q Style
We all love Bar-B-Qing! Whether you're cooking with hot coals or a gas flame, you'll need
to know a 3 secrets before you cook your Tilapia
1) Your grill should be clean with no leftover food particles from previous food to avoid
altering the taste of the fish, or having the fish stick to your grill.
2) Spray your clean grill with cooking oil spray prior to placing it on the fire (while the
grill is at room temperature).
3) Whether you're cooking with hot coals or gas flames, raise the level of grill as high as
possible so your fish doesn't cook too quickly, or stick to the grill and dry out.
4) You can also grill a whole Tilapia (or any fish) in a stainless steel cooking cage placed
on the grill.
