Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Red snapper fillets
  • 0.25 cup Olive oil
  • 0.25 cup Lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Sea salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 4 pieces Lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, chopped parsley, chopped dill, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the red snapper fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure each fillet is evenly coated. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Step 3

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Oil the grill grates lightly to prevent the fish from sticking.

Step 4

Remove the snapper fillets from the marinade and place them on the grill with the skin side down.

Step 5

Grill the fillets for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F.

Step 6

Once cooked, transfer the fillets onto a serving plate. Serve each fillet with a lemon wedge on the side for an extra burst of citrus flavor.

Step 7

Enjoy your Keto Grilled Snapper with Lemon Herb Marinade hot off the grill!
