best way to cook fish on the grill

A little olive oil, kosher salt, pepper and a little lemon pepper...Hmmm good
cook it like you would a yft steak. marinate it in soy sauce, key lime juice, and grated ginger, then sear rare in a pan with sesame oil. slice at an angle and serve like sashimi. sauteed baby bok choy or spinach goes great with it.
If the fish is fresh...I mean recently harvested, iced down and bled accordingly and handled with love and respect from the minute it's boated to the moment its filleted, then keep it simple.
Wahoo...has an amazing flavor and texture that doesn't need to be masked by heavy overalls. Olive oil, Sea salt and pepper (no acid ie. lemon or lime marinade, which cooks the fish premarturaly). Grill on hot grill.....feel free to add a dipping sauce, but it wont need it. Squeeze a little lime/lemon......that's all in needs.
Save the sauce for older/frozen fish, oily macks or bluefish.
Also, I tried tempura wahoo bites which was very nice. I used a soy sauce and sesame oil dipping sauce and it was very nice.
As follows.
Cut Wahoo into strips or fingers. Dipping into tempura batter (white flour, soda water and splash of dark sesame oil to the same thickness as pancake batter) and fry in veg oil till it floats.

I love wahoo, including eating them. And I agree with Kahi, it is a mild flavored fish that does not need marination, especially with citrus that pre-cooks it. Even soy sauce is too strong for wahoo the way that I like it.
Here's a great way to prepare wahoo. Slice the fillets on a bias (like they do most fish in sushi bars). Make the slices thin ones, no more than 1/4" thick. Put on a plate with a little sesame/X virgin olive oil (go light on the sesame), add some sesame seeds, put on plate and use a blowtorch to quickly and lightly sear the fish on one or both - your choice - sides. DO NOT OVERCOOK! Then, eat as is, or prepare a dipping sauce of ponzu, a bit or rice vinegar and finely chopped small green onion.
Oi Shi (delicious)!
