Branzino, also known as European sea bass, is a delicious white fish with a mild flavor. I like to cook them whole, stuffed with lemon wedges, fresh oregano, and rosemary before roasting them for an easy dinner full of Greek flavor.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil , divided
  • 1 red onion , chopped
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 whole Branzino , sea bass
  • 4 lemons wedges , divided
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 0.5 cups white wine
  • 0.25 cups lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves
  • 0.25 cups chopped Italian flat-leaf parsley

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil into a large baking pan; add red onion and season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Place 2 whole branzino fish into the baking pan. Stuff each cavity with 1 lemon wedge, 1 rosemary sprig, and some of the red onion in the pan. Pour white wine and lemon juice over fish and sprinkle with oregano. Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over fish.

  4. 4

    Bake in the preheated oven until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, about 25 minutes.

  5. 5

    Gently slide a spatula between the bones to separate fish; remove all the bones. Serve fish on a platter; garnish with parsley and 2 lemon wedges.
