However, the main challenge in grilling fish on Teflon is preventing the fish from sticking to the surface.
How to grill fish in Teflon
Here are 3 tips for grilling fish in Teflon so that the results are perfect and don’t stick:
1. Use low heat
A large fire on the stove can make the Teflon too hot so that the fish skin will immediately stick to it.
Use low heat to heat the Teflon slowly before adding the fish. This step is very important to ensure the fish cooks well without sticking.
2. Grill the skin side first
Starting the grilling process from the skin side of the fish is an effective trick to prevent sticking.

By grilling the skin first, the skin will cook and become crispy making it easier to flip. Apart from that, this method also ensures that the fish cooks evenly.
3. Don’t turn the fish too often
When grilling fish, just flip the fish once. Once the skin side is cooked, turn the fish over and rub two to four tablespoons of oil on the flesh.
