Fish Marinade

Cooking Ingredients

Method

Marinating the Fish

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine the lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic (reserve the remaining for cooking), salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Fish

    Place the fish fillets in the marinade and coat them well. Cover and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking the Fish

  1. 3

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet, heat 4 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Fish

    Carefully place the marinated fish fillets in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the fish is golden brown and cooked through.

  3. 5

    Add Garlic

    In the last minute of cooking, add the reserved minced garlic to the pan and sauté briefly until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  4. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Once the fish is cooked, remove it from the skillet and transfer to a serving plate. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.
