Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6 ounces each) Halibut fillets
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 4 pieces (for serving) Lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (approximately 400°F). Lightly oil the grates with a paper towel dipped in a little olive oil to prevent sticking.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, black pepper, and paprika to create the marinade.

Step 3

Pat the halibut fillets dry with paper towels. Brush both sides of each fillet generously with the marinade and let them sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes while the grill heats up.

Step 4

Place the halibut fillets on the preheated grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on the first side, or until grill marks appear, and the edges begin to turn opaque.

Step 5

Carefully flip the fillets using a spatula. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the second side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 130-135°F.

Step 6

Remove the halibut from the grill and let it rest for a minute or two. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the fish.
