Tips & Substitutions
For a flavor twist, consider using other dressings like Italian or a homemade citrus vinaigrette. If blue fish isn't available, try salmon or tilapia as great alternatives. To enhance the dish, marinate the fish in the dressing for a few hours before grilling for deeper flavor. Always ensure the grill is preheated to avoid sticking.

It pairs beautifully with the flavors of Seafood Divan and can be complemented with a side of rice or crusty bread to soak up the sautéed vegetables. For a complete meal, consider pairing it with white wine.
