While 30 minutes is a good minimum, you can marinate the fish for up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for a more intense flavor. Avoid marinating for longer as the lemon juice can start to break down the fish.
Yes, you can bake the marinated carp. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
