Instructions

Step 1: In a bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp fresh lime juice, 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tsp sesame oil, and 2 cloves minced garlic until well combined to create the Asian citrus glaze.
Step 2: Brush 4 Gulf white fish fillets (6 oz each) lightly with 2 tbsp vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper. Preheat a wood-fired grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
Step 3: Grill the fish fillets for 4-5 minutes per side, brushing generously with the citrus glaze during the last 2 minutes of cooking until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 4: Remove the fish from the grill and sprinkle with 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro and 1/2 tsp red chili flakes for a subtle heat and fresh finish. Serve immediately.
