Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Rinse the whole fish under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. Make 3-4 diagonal cuts on each side of the fish.

  2. 2

    Season the Fish

    Rub the fish with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper, making sure to get some of the seasoning into the cuts. Place lemon slices inside the cavity of the fish.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, remaining garlic, salt, and black pepper. Allow to marinate for about 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Bake the Fish

    Place the seasoned fish on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

  5. 5

    Cook the Shrimp

    In the last 5 minutes of the fish baking, add the marinated shrimp to the baking sheet. They should cook until pink and opaque, approximately 5-7 minutes.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the fish and shrimp from the oven, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve immediately with additional lemon wedges on the side.
