Ingredients:
- 1 whole Trevally fish (cleaned and scaled)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 lemon (half sliced for grilling, half for garnish)
- Fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro (optional)
Equipment:
- Outdoor grill plate
- Tongs or spatula
- Brush for oiling
Directions:
Get the fish ready
- After giving the trevally fish a good rinse, use a paper towel to pat dry.
- Make two to three shallow incisions on the fish’s sides. This facilitates the thorough penetration of the seasoning.
Make the fish marinated.
- Combine the olive oil, parsley, smoked paprika, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.
- Make sure the marinade penetrates the fish’s cavity and into the slices by liberally rubbing it over it.
- As you prepare the grill plate, let the fish marinate for 15 to 20 minutes.
Warm up the grill plate.
- To keep your grill plate from sticking, place it over medium heat and lightly oil it.
- To get a beautiful sear, make sure the plate is hot before adding the fish.
Put the fish on a grill.
- The trevally fish should be put on the grill plate. Cook until brown and beginning to crisp up, 5 to 7 minutes per side.
- With a spatula or tongs, delicately flip the fish. Cook until the meat flakes easily with a fork, about 5 to 7 minutes on the other side.
Enjoy and Serve
- Place the fish on a serving plate after taking it from the grill. Serve with wedges of lemon and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
- For a full supper, serve it with grilled veggies, steamed rice, or a side of fresh salad.
