BAKED SEA BASS WITH HERBS AND LIME

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 6/400F/200°C
• Scale the fish well (ask your fishmonger to do it for you) and cut off the fins.
• Wash the fish thoroughly under cold running water and pat dry with kitchen paper.
• Make slashes diagonally across the fish, about 4 cuts on each side.
• Place the fish in an oiled roasting tray and brush lightly with some of the oil.
• Grate the zest of 1 lime and squeeze the juice.
• In a bowl, mix the juice and zest with the chopped herbs, grated garlic and finely sliced red onion and stuff the mixture into the slashes.
• Cut the remaining 2 limes in 4s and place alongside the fish.
• Season the fish and lime with salt and freshly milled black pepper and drizzle over the remaining oil.
• Place the tray on the middle shelf of the oven for about 25-30 minutes (depends on the size of the fish) until the flesh feels just firm when pressed.
• If you want to double-check that the fish is cooked, part some of the flesh down to the bone and see if it flakes.
• Place the fish on a serving plate and pour the remaining juices from the tray onto the fish.
• To serve, place the roasted lime alongside the fish or you may want to squeeze the lime on the fish and then place the squeezed lime on the side for garnish!
