Sprinkle red pepper flakes and paprika over the top.

If baking, cover with foil and bake for 20-25 minutes until cooked through.

If grilling, cook for 5-7 minutes per side, until the flesh flakes easily with a fork.

Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before serving.

Garnish with fresh herbs and lemon wedges before serving.
