Grilled Cod

Method

• Step-by-Step Method for Grilled Cod
• Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
• Lightly spray both sides of each cod fillet with oil spray.
• Place each fillet on a plate or tray.
• In a small bowl, mix together the Cajun spice mix, lemon pepper, salt, and ground black pepper.
• Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over both sides of each fillet, pressing gently to adhere.
• Zest the lemon and set zest aside for garnish.
• Cut the lemon into wedges for serving.
• Chop the spring onion whites finely and set aside.
• Slice the butter into 4 small pieces, one for each fillet.
• Place the prepared fillets onto the grill, presentation side down.
• Grill for 3–4 minutes without moving, until distinct grill marks form and fish releases easily from the grill.
• Carefully flip each fillet with a fish spatula or wide tongs.
• Top each fillet with a slice of butter.
• Continue grilling for 2–3 more minutes, until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
• Remove fillets from the grill and let rest for 2 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
• Plate each fillet on a warm plate.
• Sprinkle with reserved lemon zest and chopped spring onion.
• Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
