Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Use a grill brush to clean the grates before oiling for better results.

Remove the fillets from the marinade and place them on the grill. Cook for 4 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 3 minutes.

Avoid moving the fillets too much to achieve nice grill marks and prevent breaking.
