Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the fish fillets and coat them evenly. Let marinate for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grilling Method

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated fish fillets for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until cooked through and flaky.

  3. 3

    Frying Method

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with a little olive oil. Fry the marinated fish fillets for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Fries

    While the fish is cooking, prepare the regular fries according to package instructions or fry them in a separate skillet until golden and crispy.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Plate the grilled or fried fish alongside the regular fries and a portion of mandarin oranges.
