I just used this recipe with eastern Pacific black snook filets (a firm and delicious whitefish …I’m in Costa Rica) ) …covered in lemon juice, rubbed with salt and, pan fried in butter (substitute for oil.) So simple and totally delicious! Everybody enjoyed! Thanks for bringing us back to the basics of good cooking!
Highly recommended!!!
Now I’m studying your squid and pork recipes. I will have to try one soon!!!

Ha ha butter makes everything taste better. Coconut oil is interesting.
]]>The second time I made this I used a frying pan (raining too hard for the gas grill) butter instead of oil and lemon juice. So simple …so awesome …5 stars!!! EVERYBODY loved it!!!
What would you think of using coconut oil for frying??? I may give it a try sometime.
Thanks for the recipe!!!

One final solution? Learn to love the smell of fish. Seriously. I grew up on the cost, have eaten fresh seafood all my life. The smell of fresh fish is a delight. It is no different than learning to love the smell of washed rind cheese or the smell of fermenting beer. Train your mind to associate a funky smell with a yummy taste.
]]>1) Cheap solution: Grill it outdoors, then the inside of your house won’t smell as much. Unfortunately this is more work than just flicking on the oven/broiler but you get the nice smoky taste from the grill enhancing the flavor of the oily fish.
2) Expensive solution: Maybe you need to upgrade your kitchen’s exhaust fan – not possible if you are renting- but if you own your home and you are considering remodeling your kitchen, that is the time to get the most powerful exhaust fan you can find, venting to the outdoors. If you already have an exhaust fan that vents to the outdoors, you may be able to replace it with a more powerful model without tearing the whole kitchen apart.
Great! We love grilled mackerel and make quite often. Happy to hear it will become a regular on your table.
