Pickerel Fillets

Preheat BBQ to medium heat and brush grill grates with olive oil. Pat dry thawed pickerel fillets. Rub with olive oil and season with sea salt and pepper to taste. Place on grill, skin side down and close lid. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature at the thickest part of the fish reaches 145°F. Serve with lemon and fresh herbs.

You can roast either skinless or skin-on fish, but make sure to place the skin side down if it has it. When roasting from frozen, cook for 20-25 minutes. When roasting thawed fish, cook 15 minutes. The fish will be done once it's completely opaque and flakes easily.

Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 400°F.
Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Place the Pickerel: Arrange the frozen pickerel fillets on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping.
Bake: Bake the pickerel for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Check for Doneness: The internal temperature of the pickerel should reach 145F
From thawed approx 15 minutes until same internal temperature 145F, opaque and flaky

Preheat air fryer to 400°F and spray basket with oil. Add seasoning and cook for 10-12 minutes (flipping halfway through) or until the internal temperature of the pickerel reaches 145°F. The fish should be golden and flake easily with a fork.

Cooking times and temperatures may vary based on the method of preparation and the thickness of the fish. Test for doneness with a meat thermometer.
