Easy Grilled Citrus Marinated Fish

This dish features fish fillets marinated in a blend of citrus juices, garlic, and herbs, then grilled to perfection. The recipe takes about 30 minutes from start to finish and serves 4 people.

Ingredients

4 fish fillets (such as salmon, tilapia, or mahi-mahi)
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro chopped
Lemon or orange slices for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the orange juice, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, parsley, and cilantro.
Marinate the Fish: Place the fish fillets in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring it is well coated. Marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 1 hour in the refrigerator.
Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, heat it over medium heat on the stovetop.

Grill the Fish: Remove the fish from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place the fillets on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Serve: Transfer the grilled fish to a serving platter and garnish with lemon or orange slices. Serve immediately with your favorite sides.
