  • 3  green onions, chopped, green and white parts
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 12 teaspoon cayenne pepper, adjust to taste

  1. Combine lemon juice, soy sauce, vegetable oil, ginger, garlic, green onions, minced onion, paprika, and cayenne pepper and stir to mix well.
  2. Place fish in a zipper seal bag and pour liquid mixture over it. Seal and marinate in the refrigerate for about 1 to 2 hours.
  3. Oil grill grate or fish basket really well and preheat grill to medium-high. Grill fish for 4 minutes on each side. Flip the fish only once and brush with reserved marinade when flipped.

Notes

Fish is completely cooked when the color turns from translucent to opaque (white) or has reached a 150 degree F internal temperature. Resist the temptation to over-cook fish until it “flakes,” which indicates the fish is becoming dry.
