If your grill does not have temperature control, heat the grill over hot coals until the flame dies down. Lay out sheets of aluminum foil—large enough to wrap around each piece of fish—and spray it with nonstick cooking spray. Place the fish on the foil. Squirt lemon juice on the fish or brush on olive oil. You can add any desirable spices—such as lemon pepper or fish seasoning. Add sliced vegetables—such as peppers and onions—to each piece of foil.
