👩‍🍳 Instructions (The AI's Game Plan)

🎯 Follow along with our AI chef's step-by-step adventure. Results may vary wildly!

1

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, about 400°F (200°C). Clean and oil the grates to prevent sticking.

⏱️ 10 min (ish) 🌡️ 400°F

AI Wisdom: Ensure the grill is well heated before placing the fish.
2

In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and paprika to make a marinade.

⏱️ 5 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: This marinade adds flavor and helps keep the fish moist.
3

Brush the fish fillets with the marinade on both sides, ensuring they are evenly coated.

⏱️ 2 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Marinate for at least 15-30 minutes for better flavor penetration.
4

Place the fish fillets skin-side down on the grill. Close the lid and grill for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

⏱️ 10 min (ish) 🌡️ Medium-high heat

AI Wisdom: Avoid flipping the fish multiple times to prevent sticking and ensure beautiful grill marks.
5

Remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the fish and garnish with lemon wedges if desired.

⏱️ 5 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Resting allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the fish moist and flavorful.
