Grilled Fish with Crispy Fries

Ingredients:

2 white fish fillets (such as cod or halibut)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp lemon zest
Salt and pepper to taste
1 lemon (cut into wedges)
Fresh parsley (for garnish)
2 cups frozen fries (or fresh if you prefer)

Instructions:

Prepare the Fries:

Preheat your oven according to the instructions on your frozen fries package. Place them on a baking sheet in a single layer.

Bake for the recommended time, turning halfway through to ensure they become crispy and golden brown.
Prepare the Fish:

Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.

Rub the spice mixture evenly on both sides of the fish fillets.

Grill the Fish:
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat.
Grill the fish fillets for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are fully cooked and slightly crispy on the outside. Be careful not to overcook the fish as it may become dry.

Assemble the Plate:
Arrange the crispy fries and grilled fish fillets on a plate.

Serve with fresh lemon wedges on the side and garnish with chopped parsley.

Optional: Add a dollop of tartar sauce or a drizzle of lemon butter for an extra burst of flavor!
