How to Make Lemon Grilled Fish: A Complete Guide

Lemon grilled fish is a refreshing, healthy dish that’s perfect for summer. Here’s a simple yet delicious recipe to impress your family and friends.

Ingredients:

- 2 white fish fillets (like cod or tilapia), 200g each

- 1 lemon, sliced

- 2 tbsp olive oil

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 1 tsp dried herbs (thyme or dill)

- Salt and pepper to taste

- Aluminum foil

Steps:

1. Prep the Fish: Rinse the fillets and pat dry. Season both sides with salt, pepper, minced garlic, and dried herbs. Drizzle olive oil evenly.

2. Add Lemon: Place lemon slices on top of the fish and underneath, infusing flavor as it grills.

3. Grill: Preheat the grill to medium-high. Wrap the fish in foil (seal tightly to keep juices in). Grill for 12–15 minutes, until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

4. Serve: Unwrap carefully, transfer to a plate, and garnish with extra lemon slices or fresh herbs.

Tips: For a crispy top, grill briefly without foil for the last 2 minutes. Pair with roasted veggies or a light salad for a balanced meal. Enjoy this zesty, tender delight in under 30 minutes!
