Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat the 4 fish fillets dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper.

  2. Step 2

    Rub the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the fish fillets. Drizzle with 1 tbsp of the olive oil and let sit for 5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates with 1 tbsp olive oil to prevent sticking.

  4. Step 4

    Place the fish fillets on the hot grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until grill marks appear and the fish flakes easily with a fork.

  5. Step 5

    While the fish cooks, dice the 2 tomatoes and chop the 2 tbsp parsley. In a small bowl, toss with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt.

  6. Step 6

    Remove the fish from the grill and let rest for 2 minutes. Serve hot, topped with the fresh tomato mixture.

  7. Step 7

    Garnish with extra parsley if desired. Enjoy immediately.
