Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces fish fillets (such as salmon, cod, or tilapia)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 whole lemon
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Instructions
Begin by preheating your grill to medium-high heat.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Brush both sides of each fish fillet with the seasoned olive oil mixture.
Slice the lemon in half and cut one half into thin slices. Juice the other half and set aside.
Once the grill is hot, oil the grates lightly to prevent sticking.
Place the fish fillets on the grill, skin side down if applicable, and grill for 4-5 minutes.
Carefully flip the fillets and place a slice of lemon on top of each one. Grill for an additional 3-5 minutes or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the fillets from the grill and transfer them to a platter.
Squeeze the reserved lemon juice over the grilled fish.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.
