Grilled Cod Dish with Lemon and Garlic Recipe

Ingredients:

• 4 cod fillets (about 6 ounces each)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• Juice of 1 lemon
• Zest of 1 lemon
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
• Lemon wedges (for serving)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, oregano, salt, and pepper.
2. Marinate the Cod: Place the cod fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring it’s well coated. Cover or seal and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
3. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F / 200°C).
4. Grill the Cod: Remove the cod from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Place the fillets on the grill, skin-side down. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Be careful not to overcook.
5. Serve: Remove the cod from the grill and transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
6. Enjoy: Serve the grilled cod with your choice of sides, such as steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad. Enjoy your delicious lemon and garlic grilled cod!
