Ingredients
Method
Directions
Prep and season
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Make the marinade
In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, and chopped parsley to create a bright marinade.
Marinate the fish
Brush or toss the fish with a portion of the marinade to coat all surfaces. Let stand for 10-15 minutes to absorb flavors.
Cook the fish
Grill or pan-sear the fillets for about 3-4 minutes per side until opaque and flaky. If using, sprinkle chili flakes during the last minute of cooking for a gentle kick.
