Grilled mackerel

Description

The recipe won't take much time. Grilled mackerel goes perfectly with any side dish: rice, boiled potatoes, buckwheat, or vegetables. I cooked round rice and stewed carrots and onions in tomato sauce. The meal turned out very tasty. My husband was satisfied. Girls, I highly recommend it. Serve hot.
