How to prepare the sea bass baked in foil recipe

If you are not very practical, we advise you to buy already cleaned fish: contact your trusted fishmonger. Alternatively, follow our guide on how to clean fish and you will discover that it is really simple.

  1. Finely chop the chosen aromatic herbs . You can use a mixture of rosemary and parsley or just one of the two together with garlic . Use part of the mixture to season the inside of the fish together with salt and pepper.
  2. On a baking tray lined with baking paper, distribute pieces of foil (or baking paper), which will form our parcels: with the lemon slices, form a sort of bed and place the fish on top, seasoning them with the remaining aromatic chopped part.
  3. Drizzle with a drizzle of oil , add the white wine , salt and pepper again and close forming a parcel. If you use baking paper, seal the candy wrapper using kitchen twine.
  4. Bake in a preheated oven at 190°C for 30 minutes.
  5. Once cooking is finished, turn off the oven and serve the sea bass directly inside the foil: when you open it you will feel all the aromas released instantly.

You can enrich your second course by cooking potatoes together with the fish. To ensure the cooking times are equal, blanch them for 15 minutes in salted water or cut them into slices of no more than 4 mm. The idea of ​​adding cherry tomatoes cut in half is also excellent.

Keep in mind that sea bass and sea bass are actually the same fish, belonging to the species Dicentrarchus labrax . The difference between the two names depends on the region and the dialect used. Sea bass is more widespread in central and southern Italy, especially in Lazio, Campania and Puglia; sea ​​bass is the most common term in northern Italy, particularly in regions such as Veneto, Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Lombardy.
