Method 4 Steps

1

Rinse the fish under cold water, then pat dry. Slash them to the bone 3 times on one side. Set aside.
2

Meanwhile, place the vegetables and herbs (reserving some garlic slivers for later) in a baking dish and toss with 3 tbsp olive oil and a glug of white wine. Sprinkle with sea salt and white pepper. Place the fish on top, then rub them (cavities included) with 2 tbsp olive oil, sea salt, white pepper, and lemon juice.
3

Insert the lemon slices and reserved garlic slivers into the slashes and cavities. Cover the dish with aluminium foil and bake in a preheated oven (180C) for approximately 20 to 30 minutes, or check if cooked by inserting a toothpick all the way through. Uncover for the last 5 minutes.
4

Serve with some Batata Harra*, the spicy potatoes, on the side. * Recipe on this website.
