Elevate your seafood game with this vibrant and aromatic Greek Herb Rub for Fishβa quick, flavor-packed blend of Mediterranean-inspired ingredients that brings out the best in every fillet. Featuring a harmonious mix of dried oregano, thyme, dill, and ground coriander, this rub is infused with the zesty brightness of lemon zest and the smoky depth of paprika for a perfectly balanced flavor profile. Enhanced with a drizzle of olive oil to create a spreadable paste, it not only imparts bold flavors but also helps your favorite fish fillets achieve a beautifully crisp crust when grilled, pan-seared, or baked. Ready in just 10 minutes, this versatile Greek herb rub recipe is the perfect companion for any weeknight dinner or elegant seafood feast.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the dried oregano, dried thyme, dried dill, ground coriander, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
Add the lemon zest, salt, and black pepper to the bowl, and stir the mixture until well combined.
Drizzle the olive oil into the herb and spice mixture, stirring as you go, to create a paste-like consistency. Adjust the olive oil quantity slightly if needed.
Pat your fish fillets dry with a paper towel and place them on a clean plate or baking sheet.
Rub an even layer of the Greek herb rub onto both sides of each fish fillet, ensuring they are well-coated.
Let the fish sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before cooking.
Cook the fish using your preferred method (grilling, pan-searing, or baking) until it reaches your desired level of doneness and serve immediately.
