Clean the grill thoroughly to avoid sticking.

Brush the fish generously with extra virgin olive oil.

Preheat the grill to high heat.

Place the fish on the grill, flesh side down, and cook for 7 minutes.

Check if the fish is sticking by wiggling it with tongs after about 6 minutes.

If it is sticking, close the lid and let it cook for another minute.

If it's not sticking, flip the fish onto the skin side and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until fully cooked.
