- 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.

Place the fish fillets on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish is grilling, in a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the white wine and remaining lemon juice, simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly reduced.
