Grilled Basa Fish

Here is a grilled basa fish recipe. The salsa is an interesting mexican style one.

As with most fish recipes, you can substitute any fish you prefer.

The cooking time will depend on the thickness of the fillet. A simple way to tell is if the fish is firm to the touch and looks 'flaky'.

Pour over the chopped vegetables and serve with the grilled fish.

Some plain potatoes and a salad would go well with this dish.
