Description
A quick and nutritious dinner option featuring grilled fish and vibrant steamed vegetables, perfect for busy evenings.
Ingredients
- Fresh fish fillets (like salmon, tilapia, or cod)
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- Lemon juice
- Mixed seasonal vegetables (broccoli, carrots, bell peppers)
- Fresh herbs (like parsley or dill for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring that it’s ready for the fish.
- Prepare the fish: Pat your fish fillets dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture. Rub each fillet with olive oil, salt, and freshly cracked black pepper. Drizzle with lemon juice.
- Grill the fish: Place the fillets skin-side down on the grill. Grill for 4-6 minutes on each side, until it flakes easily with a fork.
- Steam the vegetables: Fill a pot with water and place a steaming basket inside. Add your mixed vegetables, cover, and steam for 5-7 minutes until tender but still bright.
- Serve the grilled fish alongside the steamed vegetables, garnished with freshly chopped herbs.
Notes
Don’t overcook the fish; it should remain moist and flaky. Feel free to mix up your veggies based on preference. Leftovers can be used in salads or light pasta dishes.
