Absolutely. For best results, thaw the fillets completely in the refrigerator overnight. Before marinating, be sure to pat them very dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Sticking is usually caused by one of three things: the grill isn't hot enough, the grates aren't clean, or the grates aren't well-oiled. Ensure all three conditions are met before you place the fish on the grill. Also, don't try to flip the fish too early.
This dish pairs beautifully with a variety of sides, such as grilled asparagus or zucchini, coconut rice, quinoa salad, or a simple green salad with a vinaigrette.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. It's delicious cold on a salad. To reheat, warm it gently in a covered skillet over low heat or in the oven to prevent it from drying out.
