Ingredients
Scale
Fish:
- 4 fillets white fish
Seasonings:
- Salt to taste
- 1 ground black pepper
Tartar Sauce Ingredients:
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) chopped pickles
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) capers
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) lemon juice
Mango Salsa Ingredients:
- 1 mango, diced
- 1/2 red onion, diced
- 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) chopped cilantro
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Heat outdoor grill to 400°F with clean, oiled grates for optimal fish preparation.
- Pat fish fillets dry and generously season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper on both sides.
- Place seasoned fillets at a 45-degree angle on hot grill, cooking approximately 3-4 minutes per side until fish flakes easily with a fork.
- While fish grills, whisk mayonnaise, finely chopped pickles, briny capers, and fresh lemon juice in a mixing bowl until well combined.
- Simultaneously prepare mango salsa by dicing ripe mango, thinly slicing red onion, and chopping fresh cilantro, then gently mixing with a pinch of salt.
- Transfer perfectly grilled fish to serving plates, generously dollop tartar sauce alongside, and crown with vibrant mango salsa.
Notes
- Pat fish dry before seasoning to ensure a crispy exterior and better grill marks.
- Use firm white fish like halibut, cod, or sea bass for best grilling results.
- Check fish doneness by gently flaking with a fork; it should be opaque and easily separate.
- Marinate fish in citrus or herb mixture for 15-30 minutes to enhance flavor and moisture.
- For gluten-free option, replace mayonnaise with Greek yogurt or avocado in tartar sauce.
- Grill fish on well-oiled grates to prevent sticking and maintain delicate texture.
- Add jalapeño to mango salsa for extra heat and complexity.
