Easy to cook and delicious Grilled Dory Fish with Lemon Seasoning.

Grilled Dory Fish with Lemon Seasoning is a dish made by baking dory fish fillets that have been marinated with a lemon-based seasoning. Dory fish, also known as pangasius or basa fish, is a white fish with a mild flavor that is commonly used in various culinary preparations. To prepare Grilled Dory Fish with Lemon Seasoning, the dory fish fillets are first marinated in a mixture of lemon juice, salt, pepper, minced garlic, and other herbs such as coriander leaves or thymes. The fish is allowed to marinate for some time to absorb the flavors. This marinade not only adds a tangy and refreshing taste but also helps to tenderize the fish. After marinating, the dory fish fillets are grilled in a nonstick-pan until they are cooked through and flaky. The grilling process helps to retain the moisture of the fish while adding a slight crispness to the exterior. The lemon seasoning enhances the natural flavors of the fish and imparts a bright, citrusy aroma. Here's a recipe for Grilled Dory Fish with Lemon Seasoning that's easy to follow.
