Classic Nantucket Style Grilled Fish Steaks Recipes

Steps:

• Build a charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill.
• Coat the steaks on both sides with mayonnaise. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Place the fish on the cooking grate over direct medium heat. Cover and cook, turning once halfway through the cooking time, until the fish is opaque but still moist in the center, about 10 minutes.
• When done, let the fish rest for 3 to 5 minutes. Serve with additional salt, pepper, and lemon wedges, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat a charcoal or gas grill until quite hot, and put the rack 3 or 4 inches from the heat source. Drizzle the flesh of the fish with olive oil, and sprinkle it with salt and pepper.
• When the fire is ready, grill the fish for about 5 minutes, or until it's firm enough to turn. Turn, and grill until done, usually another 3 to 5 minutes. When done, the fish will still be firm and juicy but opaque, and a thin-bladed knife will pass through it fairly easily. Serve with tomato salsa.

Steps:

• In a stainless steel or glass bowl, combine garlic, olive oil, basil, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and parsley.
• Place the halibut filets in a shallow glass dish or a resealable plastic bag, and pour the marinade over the fish. Cover or seal and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour, turning occasionally.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate. Set grate 4 inches from the heat.
• Remove halibut filets from marinade and drain off the excess. Grill filets 5 minutes per side or until fish is done when easily flaked with a fork.

Steps:

• Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Sprinkle both sides of fish steak with salt and pepper. Mix butter and lemon juice; set aside.
• Grill fish steak uncovered about 4 inches from medium heat 7 to 10 minutes, brushing 2 or 3 times with butter mixture. Carefully turn fish. (If fish sticks to the grill, loosen gently with a turner.) Brush other side with butter mixture.
• Grill uncovered 7 to 10 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily with fork. Brush with butter mixture.
