2. Make shallow cuts on both sides of the fish and rub the marinade all over, including inside the cavity.
3. Cover and marinate the fish in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, allowing the flavors to penetrate the flesh.
4. Preheat your grill or oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly oil the grates or baking tray to prevent sticking.
