Instructions

Preheat grill to high. Pat fish filets dry with paper towel to remove any excess moisture. Drizzle with olive oil then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Use a pastry brush to make sure fish is evenly coated with oil and seasoned on both sides.
Once your grill has pre-heated, place the fish on the grill, reduce heat to low and close the lid. Cook for 7-10 minutes on one side(more or less depending on thickness of fish filet.) You'll know the fish is ready when it flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish is grilling, carefully toast pine nuts in a dry pan until toasted, about 6-8 minutes.
While pine nuts are baking, whisk the tahini sauce in a small bowl. Add the warm water 1-2 tablespoons at a time or until mixture becomes a nice saucy consistency.
Once the fish is cooked, drizzle with tahini sauce and topwith toasted pine nuts and minced parsley. Serve with lemon wedges.

Notes

This recipe can also be baked and is great with any firm or mild white fish, fresh or frozen!
