Recipe by /contributors/dawn-perry Grilling whole fish is not as tricky as it sounds. We tie ours with kitchen twine, which makes them easy to handle.

Ingredients

1/4 small white onion, finely chopped 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro 1/4 cup fresh lime juice 1 teaspoon grated peeled ginger 1 teaspoon sugar 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh mint plus 4 sprigs for stuffing 2 red chiles (such as Fresno or serrano), with seeds, thinly sliced, divided 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon vegetable oil Kosher salt 2 whole branzino or small red snapper, cleaned 1 lime, thinly sliced

Instructions

Prepare grill for medium-high heat. Mix onion, cilantro, lime juice, ginger, sugar, chopped mint, half of chiles, and 1/3 cup oil in a medium bowl; season with salt. Set relish aside. Season inside of fish with salt. Stuff with mint sprigs, lime slices, and remaining chiles; tie with kitchen twine. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt. Grill fish until skin is crisp and flesh is flaky and opaque down to the bone, about 5 minutes per side. (If a small knife slides easily through the thickest part of flesh, the fish is done.) Serve with relish. DO AHEAD: Fish can be stuffed and tied and relish can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover separately and chill.
