Instructions

Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp grated fresh ginger, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp honey, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1 tsp sesame oil until smooth and set aside.
Step 2: Pat dry 4 Gulf fish fillets (6 oz each) and season both sides with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
Step 3: Preheat a wood-fired grill or outdoor grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Brush the grill grates with 2 tbsp vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
Step 4: Place the fillets on the grill and cook for 4 minutes on the first side until grill marks appear and the edges start to firm up.
Step 5: Flip the fillets, brush generously with half of the ginger glaze, and grill for another 3-4 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 6: Remove the fish from the grill and brush with the remaining glaze.
Step 7: Garnish with 2 sliced green onions and serve immediately with steamed jasmine rice or a fresh salad.
