For a classic Australian dinner, you can try this.. Barramundi is a popular fish in Australia known for its mild flavor and flaky texture. Here's a recipe:

Ingredients:
- 4 barramundi fillets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lemon wedges for serving

For Lemon Herb Butter:

3. In a small bowl, combine softened butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, chopped parsley, chopped dill (if using), minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
4. Grill the barramundi fillets for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and have grill marks. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of the fillets.
