1
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Clean the fish by removing any scales and guts, and pat it dry with paper towels.
2
Seasoning
Rub the fish inside and out with olive oil. Squeeze the juice of one lemon over the fish and season generously with salt and black pepper.
3
Stuffing
Stuff the cavity of the fish with sliced garlic, the remaining lemon cut into wedges, and a handful of fresh herbs.
4
Roasting
Place the fish on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the flesh is opaque.
5
Serving
Remove the fish from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve with additional lemon wedges and garnish with more fresh herbs if desired.
