3 tablespoons, freshly squeezed
Garlic
4 cloves, minced
Fresh parsley
1/4 cup, chopped
Salt
1 teaspoon

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper to create a flavorful marinade.
  3. Brush the fish fillets generously with the marinade on both sides, ensuring they are well-coated for optimum flavor.
