1
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, chopped thyme, salt, and black pepper.
2
Marinate the Fish
Place the whole branzino in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring it's well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, allow the coals to burn down until they're covered with white ash.
4
Grill the Fish
Remove the fish from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and has nice grill marks. Place lemon slices on the grill during the last few minutes of cooking for added flavor.
5
Serve
Carefully fillet the fish at the table, drizzling with additional lemon-infused olive oil from the marinade. Serve with grilled lemon slices.
