1
Prepare the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2
Season the Fish
Rinse the branzino under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Season the inside and outside of the fish with salt and black pepper.
3
Stuff the Fish
Place lemon slices inside the cavity of the fish to infuse flavor during roasting.
4
Prepare the Baking Dish
In a baking dish, melt the butter and then pour in the white wine. Add the capers to the dish.
5
Roast the Fish
Place the branzino in the baking dish with the melted butter, wine, and capers. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
6
Garnish and Serve
Once the fish is done, remove it from the oven and sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your Branzino Piccata!
