Supermarkets usually sell cuts of fish already filleted and packaged, but I uploaded this recipe in case you want to learn how to do it.
It's easier than you think!!

Step 1: [Remove the scutes] Having the head on the right allows you to hold the tail with your left hand so it's easy to cut into the fish with firm pressure. The knife may slip, so be careful! Adjust the grilling time according to your grill. Recipe by Anchamin
