Serving size

Ingredients

  • 4 Mahi Mahi (or other white fish) Fillets, 5 oz. each

  • 4 tsp. Olive Oil

  • To taste Salt and Fresh Pepper
  • 4 sprigs of Fresh Herbs, Parsley, Rosemary, Oregano
  • 1 Lemon, thinly sliced
  • 4 large pieces heavy-duty Aluminum Foil, about 18 to 20 inches long

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 2

Lay out the aluminum foil sheets on a clean surface. Place each fish fillet on a separate piece of foil.

Step 3

Drizzle about 1 tsp. of olive oil over each fish fillet. Use your fingers or a brush to evenly coat the fillets with the oil.

Step 4

Season the fish fillets with salt and freshly ground pepper to your liking.

Step 5

Lay a sprig of fresh herbs on top of each fish fillet. This will infuse the fish with aromatic flavors as it grills.

Step 6

Arrange lemon slices over the fish fillets, placing them on top of the herbs. The lemon slices will add a bright and zesty element to the dish.

Step 7

Carefully fold and seal the aluminum foil around each fish fillet to create a packet. Be sure to seal the packets tightly to prevent any juices from leaking out.

Step 8

Place the sealed fish packets on the preheated grill. Close the grill lid and cook the fish for about 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary based on the thickness of the fillets.

Step 9

Once cooked, carefully remove the fish packets from the grill using tongs.

Step 10

Open the foil packets and transfer the grilled fish fillets onto serving plates.

Step 11

Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired, Enjoy!
