    When ready to grill, brush fish with oil mixture. Place foil on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals. Place fish fillets on foil. Cook 6 to 7 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork, turning once. Serve salsa over grilled fish.

  • To broil, place food on broiler pan and broil 4 to 6 inches from heat using times provided above as a guide.
  • Fish cooks very quickly on the grill, so watch it closely or it will overcook and become tough. When fish is done, it flakes easily when touched with a fork.
  • Instead of orange roughy, try any mild flavored white fish in this recipe such as flounder, sole or pike.
  • Fish is a great source of protein and is low in fat.
