whole fish

🥗Healthier: fish fillets

💰Cheaper: canned fish

Fillets are easier to handle, while canned fish is budget-friendly.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Avocado oil has a higher smoke point and is still healthy.

cayenne pepper

🥗Healthier: paprika

💰Cheaper: red pepper flakes

Paprika offers a milder flavor and is often more affordable.

fresh herbs

🥗Healthier: dried herbs

💰Cheaper: frozen herbs

Dried herbs are convenient and have a longer shelf life.

Clean and gut the fish, then rinse under cold water.

Pat the fish dry with paper towels.

Mix olive oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, lemon juice, and spices in a bowl.

Rub the marinade all over the fish, including inside the cavity.

Let the fish marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Place the fish on the grill and cook for 6-8 minutes per side until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily.

During grilling, baste with remaining marinade for extra flavor.

Remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.

Garnish with fresh herbs, sliced tomatoes, and lime wedges before serving.

Serve with a side of grilled vegetables or rice.
