👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, parsley, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
  3. Place the fish fillets in a shallow dish and brush the marinade evenly over both sides of the fish.

  6. Once cooked, remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
  7. Garnish with lemon slices and serve immediately.
