Ingredients

• Fish fillet (such as tilapia or salmon) - 300 grams
• Soy sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic (minced) - 2 cloves
• Ginger (grated) - 1 teaspoon
• Hoisin sauce - 1 tablespoon
• Honey - 1 teaspoon
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Chili flakes - 1/2 teaspoon
• Spring onions (sliced) - 2 tablespoons for garnish

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, hoisin sauce, honey, lemon juice, black pepper, and chili flakes to create the marinade.
2. Place the fish fillet in the marinade, ensuring it is well-coated. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
4. Remove the fish from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Discard the leftover marinade.
5. Grill the fish fillet for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
6. Remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
7. Serve the grilled fish fillet garnished with sliced spring onions and lemon wedges.
