Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Clean the Fish

    Rinse the branzino under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Make sure to remove any scales and innards if not already done.

  2. 2

    Season the Fish

    Sprinkle sea salt generously inside and outside of the fish. This will help enhance the flavor.

  3. 3

    Stuff the Fish

    Stuff the cavity of the fish with fresh parsley, thyme, and lemon slices.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Prepare for Grilling

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.

  2. 5

    Grill the Fish

    Place the branzino on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

  3. 6

    Add Lemon Juice

    During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the fish with olive oil and drizzle with fresh lemon juice for added flavor.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve the Fish

    Once cooked, remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve with additional lemon wedges and a drizzle of olive oil if desired.
