Ingredients
- 4 pieces sea bass fillets
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 piece lemon, sliced for garnish
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, parsley, basil, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
Step 2
Place the sea bass fillets in a shallow dish or a ziplock bag. Pour the marinade over the fillets, ensuring they are fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap.
Step 3
Refrigerate the marinating fish for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse into the fillets.
Step 4
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 400°F (200°C). If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are evenly white-hot and spread out.
Step 5
Brush the grill grates with oil to prevent sticking. Carefully place the marinated sea bass fillets onto the hot grill.
Step 6
Grill the fillets for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on their thickness, until the fish flakes easily with a fork and has grill marks.
Step 7
Remove the sea bass from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes on a serving platter.
Step 8
Garnish the grilled sea bass with lemon slices and additional fresh herbs, if desired, then serve immediately.
