Marinate the fish: Rub the marinade all over the fish, making sure to get some into the slits and the cavity. Stuff the cavities with lemon slices and a few sprigs of cilantro and parsley. Let the fish marinate for at least 15-30 minutes at room temperature, or up to 1 hour in the refrigerator.

- âEnsure your grill grates are clean and well-oiled to prevent the fish from sticking.
- âDon't over-marinate, as the lemon juice can start to 'cook' the fish if left too long.
- âAdjust the spice levels according to your preference.
- âServe with a side of rice, flatbread, or a fresh salad.
