Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 1 Quantity Sea Bass
- 2 Tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1 Quantity Lemon
- 2 pinches Fresh Thyme
Instructions
- After washing the fish, drain the water. If you are making large sea bass, make a few scratches on the sides so that it cooks well.
- Place the thyme and lemon slices inside the fish. You can also scatter them around and on top.
- Mix lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper in a small bowl and pour over the fish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes at 200 degrees Celsius without covering it. You can find the explanation about the time below.
Notes
Cooking time varies according to the size of the fish and the type of your oven. An oven with a turbo feature at 200 degrees C can cook a sea bass around 700-800 gr in about 25 minutes. You can tell if it is cooked by looking at the color of the fish. If the meat has turned opaque white and the brightness of the fish is gone and reddened, it means it is cooked. You can check with a fork to be sure. Once you have cooked fish in your oven once, you will now know how much time you need to give for which fish in the next cooking.
