Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup olive oil and 2 tbsp lemon juice.
- Add 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley and 1/3 cup spice mix. Mix well until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Place the 1.5 lb white fish fillets in a shallow dish.
- Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring each fillet is well-coated. Use your hands or a spoon to gently rub the marinade into the fish.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. For best results, marinate for 1-2 hours to allow the flavors to fully infuse.
- Approximately 15 minutes before cooking, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Make sure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
- Remove the fish from the marinade, letting any excess drip off.
- Place the fish fillets on the preheated grill.
- Grill the fish for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Avoid overcooking to keep the fish moist and tender.
- Remove the fish from the grill and transfer to a serving platter.
- Garnish with additional chopped parsley and lemon wedges, if desired.
- Serve immediately, pairing with your favorite sides such as grilled vegetables, a fresh salad, or rice.
Tips:
- Make sure your grill is preheated to high heat before cooking the fish to ensure a nice char and prevent sticking.
- Use fresh, high-quality white fish for the best flavor and texture.
- Baste the fish with any remaining marinade during the grilling process to enhance its flavor.
- If you're concerned about the fish sticking to the grill, lightly oil the grill grates before placing the fish on them.
- Let the fish rest for a few minutes after grilling to allow the juices to redistribute before serving.
This Spicy Barbecued Fish is a testament to the wonders of simple, flavorful cooking.
