From juicy prawns with tropical salsas to salmon kissed with spice, BBQ fish recipes are a stylish way to bring variety to your summer entertaining. These recipes, drawn from our Artisan Haus kitchen and featured in our reels, are simple to prepare, beautiful to serve, and guaranteed to impress.

FAQs

What is the best fish to BBQ?

Salmon, cod, tuna, and mackerel are all sturdy enough to grill, while prawns and scallops are quick and flavourful options.

How do you stop fish sticking to the BBQ?

Use a lightly oiled grill basket or foil, and preheat the grill before cooking.

Are BBQ fish recipes healthy?

Yes — fish is naturally lean and rich in protein and omega-3s, making it a lighter choice for barbecues.

What sides go well with BBQ fish?

Think fresh and zesty: grilled vegetables, herbed salads, citrus rice, or even charred flatbreads.

Barbecuing fish brings a sense of occasion to summer entertaining. Whether you keep things simple with lemon and herbs or branch out with global flavours, these BBQ fish recipes prove that seafood belongs at the centre of your grill.
