Are your fillets cooked all the way through or are they pink in the middle?? Sounds very tasty.
I posted this recipe for mango salsa last year which I use on my fish tacos:

2 mangos
1 bunch of cilantro
1 large tomato
juice from 1 orange
juice from 1 lime
2 cloves of garlic ( pressed)
1 bundle ( large ) green onions
1/2 red onion
jalapeno to taste

I simplified the process by buying some 'pico de gallo' from the vegetable section of my local grocer substituting it for the tomato, garlic, cilantro and onions. A LOT easier.

I like to take the fillets off the grill with just a touch of pink showing, making that calculation that they cook for just a minute after I take them off. If I do it right, the fish is completely cooked, not just seared, but still moist. The trick is to avoid overcooking, ya know?

Okay Paul, Gloria followed your recipe and we grilled up some of Walker's yellowtail last night. Wow!!! We are going to need more yellowtail SOON.
Thanks for the post,
Steve

Thanks Paul,

 Recipe went well with Mango salsa,

I went a little heavy on the Ancho/salt, but the frozen YT was a Big Hit @ the Fire House tonight,


 Little did they know it was a experiment that just happen to go well
