Ingredients:
- 2 white fish fillets (such as cod or halibut)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp lemon zest
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 lemon (cut into wedges)
- Fresh parsley (for garnish)
- 2 cups frozen fries (or fresh if you prefer)
Instructions:
Prepare the Fries:
Preheat your oven according to the instructions on your frozen fries package. Place them on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Bake for the recommended time, turning halfway through to ensure they become crispy and golden brown.
Prepare the Fish:
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
Rub the spice mixture evenly on both sides of the fish fillets.
Grill the Fish:
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat.
Grill the fish fillets for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are fully cooked and slightly crispy on the outside. Be careful not to overcook the fish as it may become dry.
Assemble the Plate:
Arrange the crispy fries and grilled fish fillets on a plate.
Serve with fresh lemon wedges on the side and garnish with chopped parsley.
Optional: Add a dollop of tartar sauce or a drizzle of lemon butter for an extra burst of flavor!
