Method
 

Fish Marinade
  1. Pre heat grill to 350
  2. Place your fish in foil. Fold up the sides to create a dish and that the marinade doesn’t leak
  3. Add lemon juice and olive oil, to your fish. Sprinkle salt paper, chopped scallions, grated garlic, finely diced peppers over top. Marinate fish 30 mins to 1 hour
  4. Slice mushrooms thin. Place in a second foil dish. Add salt, pepper, white wine & olive oil then toss. (Fold up the sides of the foil so the marinade doesn’t leak). Place on grill even if it isnt finished preheating to get the cook going. I know, I know we’re breaking rules. Set mushroom timer for 30 mins
  5. Chop the rest of your onion and peppers into strips. Toss with fajita seasoning and olive oil. You want them to be completely coated but not overly drenched. Place on a grill mat. Place on grill. Set veggie timer for 25mins
  6. Add your fish to the grill. Set a fish timer for 15 mins
  7. While everything cooks on the grill. Make your sauce! Find the recipe here for the Chipotle chive aioli. Everything will be tossed in the blender and… Well blended! And that’s it!
  8. Take your veggies and fish off the grill when done. Flake apart the fish it the foil and mix it with the finely diced peppers, scallions, and juices before serving
