- Coat each fish lightly with flour, tapping off the excess.
- Oil the rack and grill the fish over a moderately hot fire until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
- Alternatively, heat 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in each of 2 large skillets and fry the fish over high heat until golden and crisp, about 5 minutes per side; drain on paper towels.
