This delicious recipe of grilled mackerel with Aleppo Pepper is packed with best form of omega 3 and robust flavors. Mackerels need to be very fresh to be at their best. It is nearly impossible to find super fresh mackerels in the markets. We were fortunate enough to catch a few out fishing on the local sport fishing boat.⠀
