2. Generously salt the fish inside and outside, let it sit for 5-7 minutes, then rinse it and pat dry with a paper towel. Season again with salt and pepper to taste, lay out a sheet of foil, place the fish on it, drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, then tightly wrap the fish in the foil to keep all the juices inside.
