Method

Cut 2 or 3 diagonal slashes in each side of fish; sprinkle, inside and out, with salt and pepper. Stuff cavity with parsley sprigs; set aside.
Cut 36-inch (90 cm) long piece heavy-duty or double-thickness foil; grease. Centre fish on foil; sprinkle with chopped parsley and drizzle with butter. Bring foil up over fish; double-fold and press edges in to seal.
Place packet on grill over medium-high heat; close lid and grill, turning once, until fish flakes easily when tested, about 20 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.
