How would you cook Basa Fish?

Answer 1

I would grill it much like salmon. I grill mine by brushing it with butter, then sprinkling a light mix of onion powder, white pepper and a tad of garlic. Then top the fish with a slice of lemon and a slice of lime. Roll it up in foil and grill on each side for 10-15 minutes or until it flakes. Be careful not to over cook it though. Start with ten minutes on each side. Good Luck
