3Depending on how many fillets you are cooking, arrange in the basket but do not crowd - leave some space all around each fillet so they will cook evenly.
-
4Shingle 3 lemon slices on the bottom of the greased grill rack, allowing enough length to protect the fillet.

11Continue to cook for another 5 to 8 minutes, and then check for doneness.

12To check for doneness, unhinge the grill basket, and with a fork see if the fish flakes easily and has cooked through it's thickest part. If all is opaque, the fish is done, but allow a few minutes of standing time for the fish to fully complete cooking. The time to cook the fish may be as much as twenty minutes - this is a fairly low heat method, but the fillets will be juicy and not dry.
