Pesce alla Griglia is a delightful Italian classic that celebrates the simplicity and freshness of grilled fish. This dish embodies the essence of Mediterranean cuisine, highlighting the natural flavors of fish, enhanced with a drizzle of high-quality olive oil and a generous squeeze of zesty lemon.

Traditionally enjoyed during the summer months, it brings a taste of the sea right to your table.

Servings: 4

Ingredients

Fish fillets (such as sea bass, snapper, or trout)
4 fillets (about 6 ounces each)
Olive oil
2 tablespoons
Lemon
1, juiced and zested
Black pepper
1 teaspoon, freshly ground
Salt
1 teaspoon, or to taste
Fresh herbs (such as parsley or basil)
2 tablespoons, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring it's clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade. Brush both sides of the fish fillets with the marinade.
  3. Let the fish marinate for about 15-20 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  4. Place the fish on the preheated grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Avoid moving the fish too much to ensure a nice grill mark.
  5. Once cooked, remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
  6. Serve the grilled fish hot, garnished with fresh herbs and an additional drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice.
