Vivaneau grillé (grilled red snapper)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven grill or a barbecue over medium-high heat.
2. Scale and gut the fish if it's whole, then make three diagonal cuts on each side.
3. Mix the olive oil, crushed garlic, the juice of one lime, the oregano, salt and pepper.
4. Brush the fish inside and out with the marinade and tuck a few sprigs of thyme into the cuts.
5. Grill for 8 to 10 minutes per side, basting regularly with the marinade.
6. Check the cooking: the flesh should flake easily with a fork.
7. Serve hot with the remaining lime cut into wedges.
