Steps
- In a bowl, combine minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, chili paste, sesame oil, lime juice, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
- Place the fish fillets in the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated, and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
- Remove the fish from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off.
- Grill the fish for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Once cooked, remove the fish from the grill and sprinkle with chopped fresh cilantro before serving.
