💡 Chef’s Tips
- Choose fresh and sustainable fish options to ensure the best flavor and nutritional value.
- Don't overmarinate the fish, as the acid in the lemon juice can start to cook the fish if left for too long.
- Let the fish rest after grilling to ensure the juices redistribute, making the fish more tender and flavorful.
📦 Storage Instructions
Store any leftover fish in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently to prevent drying out the fish.
