Ingredientes

• 4 fillets of white fish (like tilapia or cod)
• 2 lemons (juiced and zested)
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill (chopped)

• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, combine the lemon juice, lemon zest, olive oil, garlic, parsley, dill, salt, black pepper, paprika, and red pepper flakes. Whisk the ingredients together until well combined.

2. 2

   Marinate the Fish: Place the fish fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure each fillet is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

3. 3

   Preheat the Grill: While the fish is marinating, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Make sure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.

4. 4

   Grill the Fish: Remove the fish from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Place the fillets on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

5. 5

   Check for Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature, which should reach 145°F (63°C). If the fish is not done, grill for an additional minute or two.

6. 6

   Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove the fish from the grill and transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle with sliced green onions and serve with lemon wedges on the side.

7. 7

   Enjoy Your Meal: Pair your Lemon Herb Grilled Fish with a side of vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal. Enjoy the bright flavors!
