  • Score the mackerel before cooking. This will help the glaze penetrate the fish and create a crispy skin.
  • Use a hot skillet or grill to cook the mackerel. This will help to sear the fish and prevent it from sticking.
  • Baste the mackerel with the glaze frequently while cooking. This will help to keep the fish moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the mackerel immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular options include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
