Ingredients
- 4 pieces (4-6 ounces each) White fish fillets (cod, haddock, or tilapia)
- 4 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Directions
Step 1
In a small mixing bowl, combine the fresh lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped parsley, chopped dill, salt, black pepper, and lemon zest to create the marinade.
Step 2
Place the white fish fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the lemon herb marinade over the fillets, ensuring they are evenly coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Step 3
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent the fish from sticking.
Step 4
Remove the fish fillets from the marinade and allow the excess marinade to drip off. Discard the leftover marinade.
Step 5
Place the marinated fish fillets on the preheated grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 6
Remove the grilled fish from the grill and transfer to a serving plate.
Step 7
Serve immediately, garnished with additional chopped parsley and lemon wedges, if desired.
