Step 1
Pat fish fillets dry with paper towels. Check for bones and remove any with tweezers.
Step 2
In a bowl, combine yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, tandoori masala, lemon juice, kasuri methi, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.
Step 3
Coat fish fillets generously with the marinade, ensuring both sides are covered. Place in a shallow dish.
Step 4
Refrigerate for 15–20 minutes while you prepare the grill.
Step 5
Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush grates lightly with oil to prevent sticking.
Step 6
Grill marinated fish for 4–5 minutes per side until cooked through and grill marks appear. Fish should flake easily with a fork.
Step 7
Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with fresh cilantro, onion slices, and lemon wedges.
