    I like to blacken them but leave the skin on or they fall apart, you just have to watch it cuz some have a real fishy flavor due to it being a darker meat

        throw em in the trash and eat those mahi mahi All seriousness aside though...I like to soak em for several hours in zesty italian dressing, season with natures and grill them over your choice of wood

          Kingfish

          Got this off the internet. Try at your own risk. Looked decent though.


          1 pound king mackerel fillets - cleaned, washed and cubed
          1/2 cup Italian-style salad dressing
          1/4 cup all-purpose flour
          2 tablespoons olive oil
          1 onion, diced
          1 green bell pepper, diced
          1 (16 ounce) jar salsa
          8 (8 inch) flour tortillas
          8 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese
          Directions
          1.Combine fish cubes with Italian dressing. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes. Dredge fish cubes in flour and set aside.
          2.Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly oil a 9x13 inch baking pan.
          3.In a non-stick frying pan, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Add onions and green pepper. Cook slowly, stirring occasionally until vegetables are soft. Stir in fish cubes and cook until fish is soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in half of the salsa and remove mixture from heat.
          4.Spoon mixture into tortillas, roll up and place seam down in prepared baking pan. Spoon remaining salsa over the enchiladas and sprinkle with shredded cheese.
          5.Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes.

            We used to make fish soup with Kingfish and it was pretty good.

              plank them on cow patties and cook slowly over a mesquite fire for at least 2 hours. throw the kingfish away and eat the cowpies.

                Make sure you have no, absolutely none, of the lateral line o the meat. That's the red line that runs down the fillet. Once that's done cube the meat into nugget sized pieces. Place meat in a bowl and coat with mustard, let stand for 1/2-1 hour. Coat the fish fry of your liking and then deep fry. I don't like mustard on anything but it's good like this!

                  i just cut them into strips and deep fry them to make fish tacos. add a little coleslaw and cholula on top of the fish and it is all good.

                    The removal of the dark red meat is a must! It will ruin the fish taste.

                      smoke the king fish and run it through a food processor. Add mayo, spicy mustard, chopped onions or peppers, other spices to personal preference and it makes a very good chip dip.

                        Kingfish patties

                        We usually dont keep kingfish but if we do this is the only way I will eat them. We don't filet them we ball them out. I boil the balls in crab boil until they turn kinda white then crumble up in a bowl. I make a dressing with butter, onions, bell pepper, bread crumbs or cornbread, how ever you want to make them. Then mix boiled kingfish with the dressing mixture and some eggs to help stick together and bake or deep fry. Same way you would make salmon patties but use kingfish.... Cutting out the bloodlines is a must that will make it really nasty....

                          If the kingfish are cut into steaks rather than fileted, you can "ball" them out and save a bunch of hassle removing the vein. Anything left after balling isn't anything you want to eat anyway.

                          I personally just cook the kingfish steak like a steak, but the rest of the family won't eat them that way. This is the trick I pull: steak the kings into 1 1/4" steaks, looking down at the steak you will see four circles of meat, push them with your thumbs, they will popout, that is ballin a kingfish. Season the ball of meet (really a short cylinder shape) and wrap in a piece of bacon. Put them on a skewer and grill it. Now here is the key, don't tell anyone that it is kingfish and they will enjoy a good meal of grilled chicken poppers. The texture of the grilled king, color, and even taste turns out very much like chicken.

                          I always figured kingfish is an acquired taste. You either like it or not. I was glad to find a way my kids would eat it, espcially since I have a freezer full of it.

                            Some people love kingfish and I give them all I catch. I'll eat something else. Fishsticks sounds good!

                              Fed it to another friend the other night and he loved it. Good grub.
