Cooking instruction summary:

Assemble marinade by combining lime zest, lime juice, olive oil, honey, salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a gallon-sized zip-top bag or shallow container with a lid. Add fish and marinate in the refrigerator anywhere from 1 hour up to 24 hours. (The more hours, the better!)When ready to cook, combine flour with salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Remove each fish fillet from the marinade and dredge lightly with the flour on both sides (just a light, light coating).Heat 1-2 Tbsp olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Cook fillets 3-4 minutes per side or until opaque and browned (this works best if you don't disturb the fish much while letting it cook).Serve with lime wedges.
