Step 1
In a large ziplock bag, add the lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, lemon pepper, olive oil, garlic powder and cayenne. Mix well.
Step 2
Add the fish to the ziplock bag and move it around, being sure to coat it with the marinade. Allow to sit for 2 hours - no more than 2 hours though or the acid in the lemon will effect the fish texture.
Step 3
Pre-heat grill to medium-high heat. Season the fish with more salt and lemon pepper. I use a fish grilling basket when I make this or any fish on the grill if you don't have a basket spray the grates thoroughly with non-stick cooking spray and then place the fish onto the grill. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side (may be more or less depending on the thickness of the fish, fish doesn't tak very long to cook be sure not to over-cook it because it will dry out quickly, keep a close eye on it, as soon as it is opaque in the middle take it off the heat right away.
Step 4
Squeeze remaining lemon wedges over the fish before eating.
