Baked Sea Bream With Garlic And Rosemary Recipes

BAKED WHOLE TROUT

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 375°F. Drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil on a large baking pan.
• Sprinkle the salt on and in each fish. Place the following ingredients in the order listed in the cavity of the fish. One tablespoon of olive oil, 2 or 3 halves garlic cloves, 5 sprigs of parsley and 1 sprig of rosemary.
• Place the fish (if making more than one whole fish, then the fish can be touching but not on top of each other) on prepared baking pan drizzle the fish with a little olive oil. Place the small potatoes around the fish.
• Bake for approximately 30-40 minutes, depending on size (check with an instant read thermometer temp. 145°F (62C)). Let sit 5 minutes and then remove skin and bones , place clean meat on a plate and serve with fresh lemon and olive oil if desired. When serving always be careful of bones.

BAKED WHOLE FISH WITH LEMON, HERBS AND GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• If the fish hasn't been gutted and scaled, do so.
• Heat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a roasting tin.
• Mix the butter, 2 minced garlic cloves, chopped rosemary and chopped thyme very well. Season well with salt and pepper.
• Spoon the compound butter into the fish cavities. Stuff the inside of the fish with lemon triangles (you will probably not be able to fit all of them into your fishes) and rosemary sprigs. Drizzle the fish with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. You can slash the fish two to three times if you like.
• Place the fish in the prepared tin, along with the extra thyme, garlic and remaining lemon slices. Bake for 20-25 minutes (a large sea bream takes about 25 minutes, branzino is probably ready after 20).
• In the meantime, mix the chopped tomatoes, capers, olives and parsley. Add enough olive oil to create a nicely dispersed condiment. Serve with the hot fish.
