Treat Yourself to this Delectable Grilled Croaker Fish!!!
Growing up as a child was filled with loads of memories and interesting happenings. My family and I usually travel back to the villa during long vacations to visit my grandparents. Those periods remained highly treasured and very memorable because my grandparents house was so adventurous to be in.
My kid brother, cousins and I would visit some nearby rivers, streams and lakes where we spent hours admiring nature and aquatic animals as they enjoy their habitats. There was this old fishing hook that my grandpa's manservant had then and we often look forward to hitting the rivers to catch some fishes with the hook. It was a fun-filled moment and we usually looked forward to visiting my grandparents so as to enjoy their company as well as have some soothing feel of nature.
Let me just cut my story short for now and go straight to the main reason for this post, which is to share the grilled croaker fish recipe with my wonderful fans. Fish is one of my favourite seafood and I am pleased to share the spicy grilled croaker fish recipe with you today.
Purchasing this croaker fish made me nostalgic as I flashed back to what life used to be for me couple of years ago as a growing child. Wonderful memories indeed, which I can never forget - when my days were filled with nothing to worry about in life unlike now that I am meant to cater for myself as well as face what life has to offer as the days go-by.
Interestingly, preparing this spicy grilled croaker fish isn't a difficult task at all. In fact it is among my favourite list of easiest recipes. The only task is visiting the fish market to purchase the fishes.
Once you've got the fish ready in the kitchen, pour boiling water over the fish and use salt to wash it thoroughly. Washing the fish with hot water helps to get rid of unwanted smell. Afterwards, make three slits on the fish and then rub in all the ingredients you intend to use all over the fish ensuring that the fish is properly coated with the ingredients for a delicious taste.
Personally, what I usually do is that once I've rubbed all the ingredients all over the fish, I then drizzle some few drops of olive oil or cooking oil with lemon or lime juice over the fish. Lemon and lime juice adds some sort of sharp distinctive taste to the fish, making the fish so tempting and enticing. Once the fish is ready, just pop it into the oven and allow to grill until done. Another important point to mention here is to cover the fish with foil and make some openings on the foil. By so doing, the fish will gently cook properly without getting burnt.
Ingredients:
- 1 fresh lime
- Salt to taste
- 1 croaker fish
- 1 fresh lemon
- Dry parsley leaves
- Fresh rocket leaves
- Fresh parsley leaves
- 1 teaspoon paprika spice
- 1 teaspoon mixed spices
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
Instructions:
- Descale the croaker fish then wash it properly with hot water to get rid of unwanted smell.
- Place the croaker fish in a clean grilling dish, add all the ingredients into the fish.
- Use hands to rub in the ingredients properly into the fish then drizzle with cooking oil, lemon and lime juice .
- Make three slits on the both sides of the fish and ensure that the ingredients are rubbed into the slits as well.
- Cover the fish with a cooking foil, make slits through the foil and place in a pre-heated oven of 150-250 C to grill.
- Allow the fish to grill until properly cooked.
- Once the croaker fish is cooked, bring out from the oven and serve immediately warm.
