Ingredients
- 16 ounces fish fillets (four 4-ounce fillets, see notes)
- 4 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- ½ lemon
- chopped parsley for garnish, optional
Instructions
- Start by preheating your pan or grill. Place the grill pan, skillet, or saute pan on the stovetop over medium-high heat and let it warm while you prep the fish fillets. If you're using an indoor electric grill, go ahead and heat it according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Brush one side of the fish fillets lightly with olive oil.
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper, Old Bay, and paprika.
- Place the fillets on the pan or grill with the seasoned side down.
- Brush the second side with olive oil and sprinkle with additional seasonings.
- Cook the fillets for about 2 minutes. Use a wide spatula to turn the fillets over and cook an additional 2 minutes. (Note: If using an indoor grill, place the fillets on the preheated grill and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions. For the George Foreman grill, it takes approximately 4 minutes.)
- Transfer the cooked fillets to a plate. Sprinkle with chopped parsley (optional) and drizzle with lemon juice.

Notes
- This recipe works with any mild-tasting white fleshed fish; I often make it with sole but it also works with flounder, tilapia, and even wild caught fish such as redfish. You'll have the best results with flat, thin fillets.
- The olive oil should prevent the fish from sticking to your pan or grill. If you want to be extra sure, you can use a non-stick pan and coat it with cooking spray just before placing the fish onto it.
