P.S you can also shallow fry this if you want! but they won't be as crispy as they are when grilled/baked.

^^ and offcourse you can use any white fish fillets. the key is the time of marination. the more you let it marinade, the better will be the taste... but since, it's fish, which is very delicate, you don't have to keep it for 24 hours like the chicken...5-6 hours should be enough!
