Whenever anyone mentions grilling, most people automatically think delicious hamburgers, hotdogs, and other similar grill fare. (Speaking of delicious grill fare, check out these recent posts: Smokey Whiskey BBQ Burgers and Fall Off the Bone Pork Ribs!) But there are many other less common (but equally delicious) ways to use your grill. I hear a lot of people complain about grilling fish, and I completely understand why. Fish, especially delicate, flaky varieties like flounder, tilapia, or sole, tend to fall apart on the grill. (I, too, have more than one mishap with grilling fish!) One way to overcome these difficulties is to go with the foil-pouch method for grilling fish. It's a sure-fire way to cook delicious fish on the grill without a lot of mess. Although using a foil pouch technically steams your fish rather than grills it, this method does allow you to be outside and enjoy the weather while cooking. I often like to throw some mixed veggies like squash, zucchini, and bell peppers on the grill along with the foil-pouch. It's an easy, healthy dinner that easily be made on a weeknight. An added bonus here is that your house won't smell like cooked fish for the next 3 days! I like to use what I affectionately call "Cilantro Bombs" to provide a quick flavor boost for this type of dish. I keep Cilantro Bombs in my freezer year-round, and I use them to add flavor to a variety of dishes, such as homemade soups, sautéed chicken, and of course this foil-pouch fish. Since you will already have all of the necessary ingredients, I recommend making extra of the cilantro-olive oil mix. Then throw it in an ice cube tray, and you'll be set for the next time you have a dish that needs a quick flavor boost! There are a couple of key tips to keep in mind when using the foil-pouch method:
