Grilled Cod
Ingredients
- 2 (8 ounce) fillets cod, cut in half
- 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon lemon pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onion (white part only)
Steps
- Gather all ingredients.
- Stack about 15 charcoal briquettes into a grill in a pyramid shape. If desired, drizzle coals lightly with lighter fluid and allow to soak for 1 minute before lighting coals with a match. Allow fire to spread to all coals, about 10 minutes, before spreading briquettes out into the grill; let coals burn until a thin layer of white ash covers the coals. Lightly oil the grates.
- Season both sides of cod fillets with Cajun seasoning, lemon pepper, salt, and black pepper. Set fillets aside on a plate.
- Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, stir in lemon juice and green onion, and cook until onion is softened, about 3 minutes.
- Grill cod fillets on the preheated grill until browned and flaky, about 3 minutes per side, basting frequently with butter mixture while grilling.
- Allow cod to rest off the heat for about 5 minutes before serving.
- Serve and enjoy!
