You will need: 2 large baking trays
Baked Sea Bream with Lemon and Parsley
Preheat the oven to 200 C, 180 C fan, 400 F, gas 6. Lay out the whole fish on
the baking sheets, side by side. Divide the parsley and lemon slices among
them, stuffing them into the cavity. Pour over the white wine and olive oil and
add plenty of seasoning. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes.
Check that the fish is cooked through by inserting a small sharp knife into the thickest bit of the fish and looking to see that the flesh has turned nicely white. Serve at once with the juices poured over.
Sea bream is rich in iron and vitamins, so it’s a great choice to include in your diet. Baking it in the oven really brings out the flavour and it doesn’t take too much effort to prepare either — so it’s a great no fuss dish to try this week.
