Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces white fish fillets
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 2 pieces garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Stir well to combine.
Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the olive oil mixture.
Finely chop the fresh parsley, dill, and thyme, and add them to the bowl. Mix to evenly distribute the herbs.
Season the mixture with sea salt and black pepper, stirring to create a marinade.
Place the fish fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, turning the fillets to ensure they are well-coated. Let them marinate at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, brush it with a little oil to prevent sticking.
Place the fish fillets on the grill grates (or grill pan) and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the fillets from the grill and allow them to rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Garnish with additional fresh herbs or lemon wedges if desired, and serve hot.
