Oven Baked Sea Bass Food

OVEN BAKED SEA BASS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400° Fahrenheit (200° Celsius).
• Make sure the fish is gutted and de-scaled before you start. Make the cavity larger by cutting with a knife through the bones towards the tail (not all the way just enough to enlarge the cavity). Then, make a few (3-4) slits on one of the sides of the fish.
• Season its skin generously on both sides with salt and pepper. Open up the cavity and sprinkle salt and pepper inside (don't over-season the inside).
• In a small bowl, mix crushed garlic, olive oil and chopped parsley. Spread some of this mixture inside of the cavity and fill the slits with it. Finally, place some lemon slices inside and repeat the whole process with the other fish.
• Place both fish onto a baking tray lined with baking parchment and cook in a preheated oven at 400° Fahrenheit (200° Celsius) for 10 minutes or until cooked through.
• Enjoy with salad, potatoes, grilled or pan-fried vegetables.

SEABASS BAKED IN A BAG

Steps:

• Ask your fishmonger to gut and scale your fish. Lay out a piece of tin foil and fold in half. Place the sea bass on top of the foil and score the flesh about 2 inches apart on both sides. Rub plenty of salt and pepper into the scores. Lay out the fennel on the foil and place fish on top of the fennel and push to one side of the foil. Cover liberally with the basil, red onion and bay leaves, making sure you tuck some into the belly. Drizzle over plenty of olive oil, lemon juice and knobs of butter. Fold over the left hand half of the foil and seal the 3 sides to gently hug the fish. Place on tray and bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for approximately 16 minutes (8 minutes per pound). Remove from the oven and allow to stand for 3 to 4 minutes without opening the bag.;
