Ingredients
- 2 whole (about 1 lb each, scaled and gutted) Sea bream
- 1 whole Fresh lemon
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the sea bream under cold running water and pat dry with paper towels. Set aside.
Step 2
Slice the lemon into thin rounds and set aside.
Step 3
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves, then finely chop the fresh parsley.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper to form a marinade.
Step 5
Gently score the skin of each fish on both sides with a sharp knife, making 2-3 shallow cuts.
Step 6
Rub the marinade all over both sea breams, ensuring that the mixture gets into the scored areas and the cavity of each fish.
Step 7
Place a few slices of lemon and a sprig of parsley inside the cavity of each fish for added flavor.
Step 8
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Step 9
Once hot, lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Step 10
Place the sea bream on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 11
Using a spatula, carefully remove the fish from the grill and transfer to serving plates.
Step 12
Serve immediately with additional lemon wedges on the side, if desired.
