Ingredients
- 4 pieces fish fillets (such as cod, tilapia, or halibut)
- 1 cup lemon juice
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 lemon lemon slices
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 2
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, chopped parsley, chopped dill, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Place the fish fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring each fillet is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 hour.
Step 4
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Remove the fish from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Reserve the marinade for basting during grilling.
Step 6
Place the fish fillets on the hot grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, basting with the reserved marinade until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 7
During the last couple of minutes, add the lemon slices to the grill to char slightly, adding flavor.
Step 8
Remove the fish and lemon slices from the grill. Serve the fish garnished with the grilled lemon slices and additional fresh herbs, if desired.
