Ingredients
  

  • 4 cobia fillets 6 ounces each
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Lemon slices for garnish

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, cilantro, salt, and pepper.
  2. Marinate the Cobia: Place cobia fillets in a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the fillets, ensuring they are well-coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to high heat. Oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
  4. Grill the Cobia: Remove cobia from the marinade, letting excess drip off. Place fillets on the hot grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.
  5. Serve: Transfer the grilled cobia to a serving platter. Garnish with lemon slices. Serve immediately with your choice of sides.

Notes

  • Ensure the cobia is fresh for the best flavor and texture.
  • Adjust the grilling time based on the thickness of the fillets.
  • The marinade can be customized with your favorite herbs and spices.
