Tips:
- For the freshest flavor, use ripe oranges and limes.
- To ensure the marinade penetrates the fish evenly, make sure to score the fillets before marinating.
- Don't marinate the fish for longer than 30 minutes, or the acid in the citrus juice will start to "cook" the fish.
- If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the fish in a hot skillet or on a baking sheet in the oven.
- Serve the fish with your favorite sides, such as rice, vegetables, or salad.
