Ingredients
Method
– Preheat oven to 220°C and line a tray with parchment paper.
– Cut 3 slits on each side of the fish, cutting through flesh down to the bone. Sprinkle salt and pepper inside the cavity of the fish.
– Stuff the cavity with garlic slices, parsley and dill.
– Layer lemons on top of herbs, then use a kitchen string to hold the fish and the stuffing together.
– Season the outside of the fish with salt and pepper on both sides. Drizzle with olive oil. Rub all over the fish, including inside the slits.
– Bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until cooked through. Take out of the oven and let the fish rest for five minutes.
– While roasting, make the sauce by melting the butter in a pan over medium-high heat.
– Once melted, add garlic and cook, stirring for 1 minute until incredibly fragrant. Take off the heat and stir in the dill.
– Transfer the fish onto a serving platter and drizzle the sauce all oven, ensuring you get a good amount inside the slits as well.
– Garnish with herbs and lemon wedges and serve with potatoes and either a tomato salad or oven roasted tomatoes.
