Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces sea bass fillets
- 1 large lemon
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking dish with parchment paper.
Rinse the sea bass fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Place them in the prepared baking dish.
Juice the lemon over a small bowl to catch any seeds. Set aside.
Finely chop the fresh parsley, rosemary, and thyme, and combine them in a small bowl.
In a separate small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, black pepper, lemon zest, and paprika.
Brush the olive oil mixture evenly over the sea bass fillets.
Sprinkle the chopped herbs evenly on top of the fillets.
Pour the freshly squeezed lemon juice over the fillets for a zesty flavor.
Bake the sea bass in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove from the oven, and let the fish rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Garnish with additional lemon slices and a sprig of fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot.
