Put 2 layers of foil on you r gril l pan, turnin g up the edges to contain an y juice s. Brush the foil with a little lemon oil, place the fish on the foil, sprinkle with the coriande r, seas on wi th sa lt and pepper, drizzle with a little oi l. Gr ill it for 10 minutes, or until it's flaky.
  4. Serve with the rice, pouring any cooking juices from the fish, and add a little sprig of coriander for decoration. Enjoy!
