Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Fish

    Place the fish fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the fillets are well coated. Let them marinate for 15-30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cook the Fish

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the fish from the marinade and place it on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Transfer the fish to a serving platter, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
