Chef Saeng Douangdara and Texas dietitian Whitney Stuart said hot grill grates can make delicate fillets break apart, lose moisture and protein, and reduce omega-3s.
Stuart said high-heat charring can also create heterocyclic amines, while Douangdara advised whole fish, thick fillets only on very hot oiled grills, or using baskets.
Experts recommended foil packets, cedar planks or grill baskets to protect texture and nutrition, noting wild salmon, sardines and mackerel are richest in anti-inflammatory omega-3s.
