Cooking Instructions

Prepare the Fish

Clean and gut the dorade, rinsing it under cold water. Pat it dry with paper towels.

Season the Fish

Rub the fish inside and out with olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme. Squeeze the juice of half the lemon inside the cavity and place the lemon halves inside the fish.

Add Garlic and Parsley

Add smashed garlic cloves and fresh parsley into the cavity of the fish for flavor.

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F or 200°C).

Grill the Fish

Place the fish on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the skin is crispy and the flesh is opaque and flakes easily.

Serve

Remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Serve with your choice of side and garnish with fresh parsley and lemon wedges.
