🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Make sure it's nice and clean, you don't want any flare-ups ruining your delicious dinner!
- Wash and prepare your potatoes: Scrub the potatoes clean, then peel them if desired. I prefer leaving the skins on for extra flavor and nutrients, but it's entirely up to you! Cut them into roughly 1-inch cubes.
- Toss the potatoes: In a mixing bowl, toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, pepper, and any other herbs you fancy. I like to use a little rosemary—it's so yummy!
- Prepare the asparagus: Snap off the tough ends of the asparagus spears. Give them a quick wash and set aside. Don't overthink it; a quick rinse will do the trick!
- Prepare the fish: Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. This simple step will elevate the flavor to another level, trust me!
- Grill the potatoes: Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet or in a grill basket. Grill for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and slightly browned. Keep an eye on them—you don't want them to burn!
- Grill the asparagus: Add the asparagus to the grill during the last 5-7 minutes of the potato's cooking time. It cooks up really fast!
- Grill the fish: Place the fish fillets on the grill. Grill for 3-5 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and flake easily with a fork. Cooking times vary depending on the thickness of the fillets, so keep an eye on them!
- Serve immediately: Once everything is cooked, remove from the grill and serve immediately. This dish tastes divine with a simple lemon wedge and fresh parsley. Mmm, so satisfying!
📝 Notes
- If you have any leftovers, they're super tasty cold the next day in a salad. Or you can gently reheat it on a pan
