Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 red onion, chopped
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 whole Branzino (sea bass) fish, cleaned
2 wedges fresh lemon
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
½ cup white wine
¼ cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves
¼ cup chopped Italian flat-leaf parsley
2 lemon wedges

Steps:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil into a large baking pan; add onion and season with salt and pepper.
Place the 2 cleaned fish into the baking pan and stuff each cavity with 1 lemon wedge, 1 rosemary sprig, and some of the red onion. Pour white wine and lemon juice over each fish and sprinkle with oregano. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over the 2 fish.
