Ingredients:
- 3 (6 oz / 170g) white fish fillets (Cod, Halibut, or Tilapia)
- 1 tbsp (15ml) olive oil
- 1/2 tsp (3g) kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp (1g) cracked black pepper
- 2 tbsp (30ml) extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp (15ml) fresh lemon juice
- 2 cloves (6g) garlic, minced
- 1 tsp (2g) dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp (1g) paprika
Instructions:
- Pat the fish fillets completely dry using paper towels. Lightly brush both sides of the fillets with 1 tbsp of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- In a small bowl, combine the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, and paprika. Whisk until emulsified.
- Brush half of the marinade mixture over the fillets; reserve the remaining half for finishing.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the fillets carefully on the grates.
- Sear for 3–4 minutes without moving them to establish a crust. Flip gently using a fish spatula and cook for another 3–4 minutes until the fish flakes easily with a fork or reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- Remove the fish from the heat and immediately brush with the remaining marinade while the fillets are still sizzling.
- Let the fillets rest for 2 minutes before serving.
