Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Fish fillets (such as salmon, cod, or halibut)
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, chopped parsley, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the fish fillets in a shallow glass dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
Cover the dish or seal the bag, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse the fish.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Oil the grill grates lightly to prevent sticking.
Remove the fish from the marinade, letting any excess drip off. Place the fillets on the grill.
Grill the fish for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve the grilled fish hot, garnished with additional fresh herbs and lemon wedges if desired.
