Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) haddock fillets
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves (minced) garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons (melted) unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon (chopped) parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium heat (around 375°F or 190°C) and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped dill, salt, black pepper, and lemon zest.
Pat the haddock fillets dry using a paper towel. Brush both sides of the fillets generously with the prepared dill marinade.
Place the haddock fillets on the preheated grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on the first side, or until the fish easily releases from the grates.
Carefully flip each fillet and grill for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Avoid overcooking.
During the last minute of grilling, brush the fillets lightly with the melted butter for extra richness and flavor.
Remove the fillets from the grill and transfer to serving plates. Garnish with a sprinkle of chopped parsley, if desired.
Serve immediately with your choice of side dishes, such as steamed asparagus, roasted potatoes, or a simple green salad.
