Ingredients
-
1 whole fish (e.g. sea bass, tilapia, trout) – cleaned and scaled
-
1 lemon juice
-
Salt and pepper to taste
-
3 cloves of garlic, chopped
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
-
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary (optional)
-
1 teaspoon fresh thyme (optional)
-
Lemon slices to decorate
Preparation mode
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Wash the fish well, making sure to remove all scales and entrails. If the fish has already been cleaned by the fisherman or at the market, just rinse it.
- Make diagonal cuts in the skin of the fish, about 2 to 3 centimeters apart, to allow the seasoning to penetrate.
- Season the fish with salt, pepper and lemon juice, ensuring that the seasoning gets into the cuts made in the skin.
- In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, olive oil and fresh herbs (rosemary and thyme).
- Spread this mixture all over the fish, rubbing it well into the cuts.
- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper and place the fish on it.
- Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20-25 minutes (depending on the size of the fish), or until the flesh is cooked through and the skin is golden brown.
- Garnish with lemon wedges before serving.
- Serve the baked fish with sides of your choice, such as rice, roasted potatoes or grilled vegetables.
