Ingredients
- 2 pound fish gutted and scaled
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons kosher salt
- 1 bunch tarragon fresh
- 1 large lemon
Instructions
- Heat a grill to medium high heat.
- Rub olive oil generously inside and on the outside of the fish. Wash and dry your hands, then measure out 1-2 tablespoons of salt, and using one hand to hold the fish open, use the other dry hand to sprinkle in salt.
- Stuff a few sprigs of fresh herbs into the cavity.
- Slice half the lemon into rounds and divide the slices between the fish, placing in the cavity on top of the herbs. Add more herbs, if desired.
- If using foil, add some nonstick spray, then place fish on top. (You can also lay the fish on a bed of herbs – fennel fronds work well for this.) Close up foil around the fish, leaving a small “funnel” in the middle to allow steam to escape.
- If not using foil, wet a paper towel with oil and, using tongs, rub your (clean!) grill grate with the oil, and place fish directly on grate.
- Grill for approximately 5 minutes per side, until fish unsticks from grate.
- To flip the fish, use a large spatula and wiggle it slowly under the fish to help prevent tearing.
- The fish is done when the flesh is easily pierced by a skewer or fork.
- To serve, squeeze the juice from the other half of the lemon over the top.
