Method

1

Clean the mackerel by cutting off the head and carefully gutting it. Be sure to remove the dark membrane inside, as it can taste bitter.

2

Mix together the salt, spices, 1 tbsp of oil, and 1 tbsp of lemon juice. Thoroughly rub the fish both inside and out.

3

Slice the lemon into half-moons and place them inside the cavity along with the bay leaf.

4

Place the fish in a bag or container and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

5

Before grilling, remove the lemon slices and bay leaf.

6

Place the fish on the grill grate and cook on both sides, turning frequently to keep the flesh tender and prevent the skin from burning.

7

Serve hot with vegetables, Dijon mustard, or a garlic and sour cream sauce.
