Ingredients
- Amberjack fillets (4 pieces, about 6 ounces each)
- Olive oil (3 tablespoons)
- Lemon juice (2 tablespoons)
- Garlic (3 cloves, minced)
- Fresh herbs (1 tablespoon of thyme and rosemary, chopped)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Paprika (1 teaspoon)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped herbs, salt, pepper, and paprika. Place the amberjack fillets in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, pour the marinade over, seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
- Lightly oil your grill grates using a paper towel dipped in vegetable oil.
- Carefully remove the amberjack from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Place the fillets skin-side down on the grill. Grill for about 6-8 minutes, then turn and grill the flesh side for an additional 6 minutes until it flakes easily with a fork.
- Once cooked, remove from the grill and allow the amberjack to rest for a couple of minutes. Drizzle with a little extra lemon juice before serving.
