Smoked mackerel fillets. Looks like a perfect fillet. Incredibly moist and the fish flakes brilliantly. Right amount of salt with a good smoke taste. The texture is a bit dry, but it's still very good. It has a slightly sweet and smoky flavour. The appearance isn't great and it has a slightly dry, cooked chicken like texture.
Grill mackerel. The firm texture of this fish allows you to cook with mackerel in ways that aren't options with more delicate seafood, like grilling. Place mackerel skin side down on a hot grill and grill on each side for about 5 minutes or until the fish flakes easily when touched with a fork.
