Notes

Keep the lime marinade to about 30 minutes so the fish surface stays firm.
Grill at medium-high heat and cook fish to 145F (63C).
Sazon Complete is a Latin-style seasoning blend; substitute with Old Bay if needed.
Nutrition is estimated per fillet and assumes some marinade is discarded before grilling.
