Pike complete on the grill
After you got the pike, roll it in
newspaper three times. It will take off the glue on the skin because you
will leave it on. Open the belly, take out the stuff and cut the head.
Also cut the fins. Now put it in the freezer to use
later or cook it immediately.
-
Place the pike on a piece of
aluminium paper (sufficiently large to wrap completely the fish).
-
Add onion rings, slices of crude
potatoes, and other firm vegetables like carrots sliced, broccoli and
celery bits.
-
Add some nuts of garlic butter.
-
Add spices like:
estragon, fennel, Provencal herbs, basil and rosemary.
-
Salt and pepper to your taste.
-
Close the bag correctly to prevent
the spill.
-
Put it on the grill to medium for 30 to 50 minutes and return the meat twice being sure it cooks equally
on both sides.
-
Check if it's cooked by opening the
bag and verify the meat and vegetables with a fork.
-
If it's ready, take it out of fire,
and put it in a big plate.
-
Take off the skin gently and serve
with a good glass of wine on the terrace and enjoy it with good friends.
