Grilled Fish Recipes

Fish is one of the easiest foods to cook. Simply drizzle it with a little olive oil, sprinkle on some salt and pepper, and maybe add a squeeze of lemon juice or a splash of wine as it cooks. In just a few minutes, you'll be rewarded with a healthy and delicious meal.

Grilling fish makes it even more flavorful; the grill adds smokiness and — if you're cooking a firm fish directly on the grates of your grill — a nice savory char. Looking for a few reliable grilled fish recipes? Here are 5 of our favorites:
