4 Great Grilled Fish Marinade Recipes
Quick and easy to prepare, marinades consist of acid (citrus, vinegar or wine), oil and spices. For tasty results, marinate fish in a sealed container or in a plastic zipper bag before grilling. Thick steaks need up to three hours, but often less; fillets and shellfish require 30Â minutes-any longer and they’ll cook in the acid.
Here, four chefs from across Canada share their favourite marinade recipes.
