Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces white fish fillets
- 2 whole lemon
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic clove, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 slices lemon slices
Instructions
Start by preparing the marinade. Zest and juice the lemons, keeping them separate. In a medium bowl, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped parsley, chopped dill, salt, and black pepper.
Place the white fish fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring each fillet is well-coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes, but no more than 1 hour.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, place the coals to one side for direct heat cooking.
Remove the fish from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking. Place the fish directly on the grill over direct heat.
Grill the fish for about 4-5 minutes on each side, depending on thickness, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
During the last minute of grilling, place the lemon slices on the grill alongside the fish just until they have light grill marks.
Remove fish and lemon slices from the grill. Serve the grilled white fish topped with the grilled lemon slices and garnish with extra fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy!
