Ingredients

• 2 whole fish (approximately 400g each) Sea Bream
• 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
• 1 whole Lemon
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh Parsley
• 3 cloves, minced Garlic Cloves
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black Pepper
• 5 sprigs Fresh Thyme

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the sea bream. Rinse the fish under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Ensure that the fish is scaled and gutted.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, juice of the lemon, chopped parsley, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to make the marinade.

Step 3

Brush the marinade over the entire surface of each fish, making sure to coat inside the cavity as well.

Step 4

Stuff each fish cavity with a sprig of fresh thyme and a couple of thin slices of lemon for added aroma and flavor.

Step 5

Preheat the grill to medium-high, ensuring the grate is clean; this will prevent the fish from sticking.

Step 6

Once the grill is hot, place the fish on the grate and grill for about 10-12 minutes on one side.

Step 7

Carefully flip the fish using a spatula or tongs. Grill the other side for another 10-12 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and the flesh is opaque.

Step 8

Check for doneness by ensuring the internal temperature of the fish reaches at least 145°F (63°C).

Step 9

Remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve the grilled sea bream with additional lemon wedges and a sprinkle of fresh parsley if desired.
