Method

Preparation and Grilling

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Fish

    Place the fish fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Grill the Fish

    Remove the fish from the marinade and place them on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the fish from the grill, garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro, and serve immediately.
