Grilled Fish Marinade — a guaranteed, delicious recipe

Ingredients :

1 fish (any variety suitable for grilling)

3 tbsp chopped basil

3 tbsp chopped cilantro (coriander)

3 tbsp chopped parsley

3 tbsp finely chopped red bell pepper

3 cloves garlic, crushed

1 tbsp lime zest and juice of 1 lime

1 tbsp lemon zest and juice of 1 lemon

1 tbsp paprika

1 tsp ground black pepper

1/2 cup butter, at room temperature

3 tbsp olive oil

Pinch of salt

Vegetables for roasting: small potatoes, onions, and sweet peppers

Method :

Clean the fish well and make several diagonal slashes on both sides with a sharp knife.

To make the marinade: in a bowl place the room-temperature butter, then add the finely chopped cilantro, parsley, basil, and red bell pepper.

Add the spices (paprika and black pepper), a pinch of salt, olive oil, crushed garlic, and the lime and lemon zest and juices.

Mix everything well until you have a spreadable, flavorful marinade.

Brush the fish inside and out with the spreadable mixture.

Place the fish on a baking tray and bake/grill in the oven until cooked through. Be careful not to overcook — you want moist, tender fish, not dry or tough.

Wash small potatoes well (no need to peel), cut them in half and arrange them in a separate tray with onion pieces and sweet peppers.

Roast the vegetables in the oven. When they are cooked, brush the tops with the same marinade and return them to the oven for 2 minutes to glaze.

Serve the grilled fish with the roasted vegetables, roasted eggplant, tartar sauce, and hot sauce.
