Grilled Fish (Tilapia/Cod) with Sautéed Spinach

Instructions

1. 01

   Pat the fish fillet dry using paper towels. Brush both sides with olive oil and season with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle lemon juice over the fillet and let it marinate for 5 minutes.

2. 02

   Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Lightly grease the surface to prevent sticking.

3. 03

   Place the seasoned fish on the hot grill. Cook for 4–5 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until the fish flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

4. 04

   While the fish is cooking, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

5. 05

   Add the fresh spinach to the skillet. Stir continuously for 2–3 minutes until wilted. Season with salt and black pepper.

6. 06

   Transfer the grilled fish to a serving plate and add the sautéed spinach on the side. Garnish with fresh lemon wedges if desired.
