Instructions

Preheat oven to 180C/350F

Line an oven tray with parchment. This makes clean up easier.

Pat the fish dry and place on lined oven tray.

• Drizzle with olive oil, using your hands to evenly coat fish. Then season inside and outside with salt and pepper. If you want, you can stuff the cavity of the fish with a few slices of lemon and some parsley.
• Place in preheated oven for 20 minutes for the small fish or 25 minutes for the large fish.
• When done, take out of oven and let it sit for a few minutes. Bone the fish, placing the fillets on a warm serving platter. I usually bone the fish directly on the oven tray, putting the bones to one side. This way I can use the parchment to wrap of the bones to through away.
• Drizzle with a bit of light olive oil if desired and serve.
