Ingredients
- 4 pieces fish fillet (such as tilapia, cod, or salmon)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Rinse and pat dry the fish fillets with paper towels.

Brush the fish fillets generously with the oil and lemon juice mixture on both sides.

Place the fish fillets on the preheated grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes on one side, then carefully flip and grill for another 4-5 minutes on the other side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
