Welcome to the Captain's Galley
Here we will have lots of fun in the cooking and
then the eating and that I enjoy the best.
BROILED FRESH MACKEREL.
Probably no fish lends itself better to broiling than fresh mackerel, as
the flesh of this fish is tender and contains sufficient fat to have a
good flavor. To improve the flavor, however, strips of bacon are usually
placed over the fish and allowed to broil with it.
Clean and skin a fresh mackerel.
Place the fish thus prepared in a broiler, and broil first on one side and
then on the other.
When seared all over, place strips of bacon over the fish and continue to
broil until it is done.
Remove from the broiler, season with salt and pepper, and serve.
