Ingredients

4 white fish fillets e.g., snapper, cod, halibut, flounder
2 tbsp jerk seasoning
1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

In a small bowl, mix jerk seasoning, olive oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper to create a marinade. Rub the marinade evenly over the white fish fillets, ensuring they are well coated.
Marinate the fish in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the grill or oven to 400°F (200°C). Grill the white fish for 4-5 minutes per side or bake for 12-15 minutes, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve hot with lime wedges on the side.
