Ingredients

• Whole fish (such as mackerel or tilapia) - 400 grams
• Sea salt - 2 teaspoons
• Black pepper - 1 teaspoon
• Chili powder - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic (minced) - 2 cloves
• Lime juice - 2 tablespoons
• Fresh cilantro (chopped) - 2 tablespoons
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Lettuce leaves - for serving

Steps

1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
2. In a small bowl, mix together sea salt, black pepper, chili powder, minced garlic, and lime juice to create a marinade.
3. Clean the fish and make a few diagonal cuts on both sides to help the marinade penetrate.
4. Rub the marinade generously over the fish, making sure to get it into the cuts and cavity. Let it marinate for about 10 minutes.
5. Brush the grill grate with olive oil to prevent sticking.
6. Place the marinated fish on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
7. Once cooked, remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
8. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve with lettuce leaves for wrapping.
