Mouthwatering Grilled Yellow Jack Recipe
Here’s what you need to gather:
- 2 6-oz filets of yellow jack
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp basil
- 1 TBSP lemon juice
- 1 TBSP parsley
- 6 TBSP regular olive oil
- extra lemon slices (optional)
Ready for an amazing grilled yellow jack experience? Fire up the grill and follow the steps:
- Combine the seasonings, olive oil, and lemon juice in a bowl.
- Place the filets in a shallow dish and douse with the marinade. Allow the filets to soak for at least one hour, turning at least once so both sides of the filets are coated.
- Set your grill to high heat and spray with non-stick spray or oil.
- Remove filets from the dish and allow excess marinade to drip off before placing on the grill rack.
- Grill fish for five minutes per side, or until the fish easily flakes with a fork.
- Serve with extra lemon slices or squirt fresh lemon juice over the fish before eating.
