TIPS
You can get different types of fish as you want, based on your preference or availability
Wrap in a foil while grilling if you want a more moist fish that is also easier to clean up
For a more "carnivore" version, you can reduce or remove the parsley and stick to basic seasoning
EXPEDITE
Buy pre-made fish marinade or pre-marinaded fish
Thinner and smaller cuts of fish will reduce marinade and cook time
