Roasted dorade with herbs

Fill in the fish with garlic, herbs and lemon zest.

Ever had those grilled or roasted fish on your Mediterranean holidays? Yes, the fish is so tasty. Luckily in January I found dorade, a Mediterranean fish, from my local fish store. It is so easy to make.

For 2 persons you need:

2 dorades
3 garlic cloves
basil leaves
thyme
zest and juice of a half a lemon
salt
pepper

Heat the oven to 200 °C. Remove the gut of the fish or ask your local shop where you bought the fish to do it. Rub some salt and pepper inside the fish. Add the sliced garlic, basil, thyme and zest of the lemon inside the fish. Sprinkle some lemon juice inside the fish.

Place the fish in a casserole and drizzle some olive oil on them. Season with salt and pepper. Let the fish to cook in the oven for 30 minutes or until it is nice and golden brown on the skin.

Serve with fried mushrooms, vegetable and couscous.

Roasted, juicy and tasty.
