I was going to fry these but my little one doesn't want fried foods for a while.

So is there a good way to grill, how long and what temp?
Thanks

On the shell - grilled
Filleted - broiled

They still have the skin on?

If so, medium heat until they turn white and flakey. Probably 15 mins or so. I cook by sight and feel.

Next time you catch fresh redfish, leave skin and scales on. Cut two halves off the none and remove the rib bones. Cook scales down on the BBQ, basting every minute or so with butter, lemon, garlic sauce. Let sauce drip over coals.

Cook until top is no longer translucent. DELICIOUS.

Thank me later.

Now I'm getting hungry.

I either do thus (called on the half shell) or I do blackened redfish with. Lemon butter, caper sauce. Love them both. Blackened is what I would do with filets.

Put a skillet on the stove, medium heat, butter, garlic, pepper, salt,

Put lemon, salt, pepper, and some cyan on the fish filets.

Put fish on skillet.

You will start to see a white line move up the fish as it Cooks, when that white line is in the middle, flip the fish and wait until the white line from the other side touches it. You now have perfectly cooked fish.

I'd avoid the cyanide. Maybe sub it for a touch of cayenne

I don't understand why people fry a good fish

To me nothing better than grilled with a touch of garlic butter and fresh cracked pepper

Stick a regular fork into the thickest part of the fillet, leave it there for 3-4 seconds, pull the fork out and touch it to your lips...... if its a little above warm its cooked.
