Instructions
Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel and use a pastry brush to brush half the melted butter onto one side of the fillets.
Heat your grill using medium heat. (This method works for a grill pan on your stove or your outdoor grill.)
Lay fish with the buttered side down on the grill and brush the remaining butter onto the top side.
Then squeeze 2 of the lemon slices over the buttered fish.
Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until it is browned and releases from the grill.
Flip the fish over, squeeze 2 more lemon slices over the fish, then sprinkle with half the parsley.
Cook for 3 to 5 more minutes until flaky and cooked through.
Remove to serving platter and serve with the remaining 4 wedges of lemon.
