Ingredients:

  • 1 lb firm white fish fillets
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp melted unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 lemon, sliced into rounds

Instructions:

  1. Pat the fillets completely dry with paper towels to ensure a proper sear.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the avocado oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Brush the mixture generously over all sides of the fillets.
  3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (approx. 400°F/200°C). Oil the grates lightly using a paper towel dipped in oil to prevent sticking.
  4. Carefully place the fillets on the hot grates. Close the lid and sear for 3–5 minutes without moving them.
  5. Using a fish spatula, gently flip the fillets once they release naturally from the grill.
  6. Grill for another 3–4 minutes. Simultaneously, place the lemon slices on the grill for 2 minutes per side until slightly charred.
  7. Remove fish from the heat. Immediately brush the melted butter and lemon juice mixture over the hot fillets.
  8. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve topped with the grilled lemon rounds.
