I do something similar using mayo as "glue". I keep a shaker of tarted
up bread crumbs. And I use a hot paprika in place of the ground chile.
As to the carp - It's native to fresh water and thrives in muddy, turbid
streams where other fish don't/can't live. Carp caught from those bodies
of water are often "muddy" tasting which has given the species a bad
name with many. But, remember, goldfish are a close relative of carp.

Title: Dorada "Gold Fish" w/Curd Recipe
Categories: Deafood, Herbs, Vegetables, Cheese
Yield: 2 servings
2 Pcs Dorado; 12 - 14 OZ each
3 tb Oil
1/2 ts Paprika; sweet
1/2 ts Basil
1/2 ts Oregano
1/2 ts Turmeric
1/2 sm Lemon
Salt
2 tb Cottage cheese
6 Dried tomatoes
Garlic; dried
The fish is cleaned of scales, the insides are removed
and the gills are removed. Wash, dry on paper towels.
Prepare a marinade of oil and spices. (squeeze half a
lemon into the oil, add sweet paprika, basil, marjoram,
turmeric. Mix thoroughly.)
Make criss-cross incisions on the fish on both sides.
Prepare the filling. Mix the cheese and chopped
sun-dried tomatoes. Add a little salt, if desired, add
dry basil and dry garlic. Mix it.
Stuff the cavity with cottage cheese mixture.
Brush with a marinade of spices on both sides with a
silicone brush.
Put it in a baking dish. Usually, the oil used to
lubricate the fish is enough so that it does not burn
and does not stick to the bottom of the mold. But just
in case, you can pre-cover the bottom with baking paper.
Next, you can add fresh vegetables to the fish, for
example cherry tomatoes or green asparagus, they are
also lubricated with a brush with the remnants of oil
with spices.
Put it in the oven @ 375ºF/190ºC for 20-25 minutes.
When serving, sprinkle with allspice and garnish with
sprigs of fresh basil.
Enjoy your meal!
