Which types of fish are best suited for grilling, baking, or pan-searing, and why?

Been busting my head around the best types of fish that work well on the grill, in the oven, or even on the pan. I mean there are so many fish in the sea, right? So, which ones really stand out when it comes to grilling, baking, or pan-searing? How come they are more suited for this? It's all a bit confusing and I could really use some input from you guys.

Well, you know what they say - there's plenty of fish in the 'grill', but only a few can take the 'heat'! My vote goes to salmon for grilling, cod for baking, and tuna for pan-searing. Each has its own unique flavor that comes alive with the right cooking method. However, let's not forget our friend, the mackerel, who is a flexible guy, taking well to all three methods!

What about experimenting with less traditional options, like swordfish or mahi mahi? Heard they can handle some heat too and have a unique texture that could potentially level up our grilling or pan-searing game. And don't you think halibut could also work quite well for baking, considering it's dense, meaty texture? What do you guys think? Anyone got specific recipes or tips to share on these?

Totally get where you're coming from. Let's throw in a wildcard - ever tried grilling some monkfish? It's got a great lobster-like texture that grills pretty well. Also, anyone else here a fan of pan-searing some good ol' rainbow trout?

Hard to go wrong with a quality cut of sea bass, too. It bakes just right without getting too dry. What's your go-to seasoning for that?

How about red snapper for grilling? Got a firm texture - holds up like a champ. Thoughts on marinating it?

If you're aiming for a light, flaky finish, arctic char is a real winner on the grill with its subtle sweetness. And don't overlook sablefish (black cod) for pan-searing; its buttery texture is simply to die for when it's crisped up just right.
