Method
Preparation
Prep the Fish
Rinse the opal eye fish under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Place the fish on a clean cutting board.
Prepare the Marinade
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Squeeze the juice of the whole lemon into the mixture and stir until well combined.
Marinate the Fish
Brush the marinade generously over both sides of the fish, ensuring it's well coated. Let the fish sit for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Chop the Parsley
While the fish is marinating, finely chop the fresh parsley and set aside for garnish.
Cooking
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Serve
Remove the fish from the grill and transfer it to a serving platter. Garnish with lemon slices and sprinkle with additional parsley if desired.
