Grilling fish on a Traeger grill is a delightful way to enjoy fresh flavors while ensuring perfectly cooked, flaky fillets. This simple recipe showcases how easy it is to achieve delicious results using just a few ingredients and the right technique.

Ingredients

  • 2 fish fillets (such as salmon, trout, or sea bass)
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • Lemon wedges (for garnish)
  • Fresh herbs (like dill or parsley, optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Grill

Set your Traeger grill to 375°F and allow it to preheat for about 15 minutes. This step ensures that your fish cooks evenly and develops a nice sear.

2. Prepare the Fish

Pat the fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Brush both sides with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. This preparation enhances flavor and prevents sticking.

3. Place on Grill

Once preheated, place the fish directly on the grill grates skin-side down. This position helps keep the fillet moist while allowing the skin to crisp up beautifully.

4. Cook Time

Close the lid and cook for 10-15 minutes, depending on thickness. Aim for an internal temperature of 145°F for perfectly cooked fish.

5. Check Doneness

The fish should flake easily with a fork when done. If it resists flaking, give it a couple more minutes on the grill.

6. Serve

Carefully remove from the grill, garnish with lemon wedges and fresh herbs if desired, then serve immediately. The brightness of lemon complements grilled fish wonderfully!
