Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces fish steaks (such as salmon or halibut)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
Rinse the fish steaks under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, salt, and black pepper to make the marinade.
Place the fish steaks in a shallow dish or a large resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more intense flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Remove the fish steaks from the marinade and allow any excess to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
Place the fish steaks on the preheated grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Transfer the cooked fish steaks to a serving platter. Sprinkle lemon zest over the top for added brightness.
Serve immediately with your choice of Paleo-friendly sides such as grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
