1
Prepare the Fish
Rinse the Kurodai under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Make 3-4 diagonal cuts on each side of the fish to allow for even cooking.
2
Season the Fish
Rub the fish inside and out with salt and black pepper. Drizzle olive oil over the fish and inside the cavity.
3
Stuff the Fish
Slice the lemon into wedges and place some inside the cavity of the fish along with the fresh herbs. If using, mince the garlic and add it as well.

4
Grill the Fish
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the fish on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the flesh flakes easily with a fork.
5
Add Optional Ingredients
If using, add cherry tomatoes and capers to the grill for the last 5 minutes of cooking to heat through and add flavor.

6
Plate and Serve
Once cooked, remove the fish from the grill and place on a serving platter. Garnish with additional lemon wedges and fresh herbs. Serve immediately.
