Fish and Marinade

Method

Preparation of Fish

  1. 1

    Marinate the Fish

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade. Add the fresh fish fillets and ensure they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill or Oven

    Preheat your grill to medium heat or your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Cooking the Fish

  1. 3

    Grill or Bake the Fish

    Remove the fish from the marinade and place it on the grill or on a lined baking tray if using the oven. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side for grilling or 12-15 minutes in the oven, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Preparing the Vegetable Garnish

  1. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender. Add the cherry tomatoes in the last 2 minutes of cooking.

Serving

  1. 5

    Plate the Dish

    On a plate, arrange the sautéed vegetables as a bed. Place the grilled or baked fish fillet on top of the vegetables. Garnish with lemon wedges and optional fresh herbs.

  2. 6

    Enjoy!

    Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your fresh fish presentation.
