ROASTED SEA BREAM WITH HERBS
Orata arrosto alle erbe is one of my favorites fish recipes. The sea bream, marinated with herbs and then roasted and baked, reveals some of the most exiting flavors. The white flesh of the fish is still firm, but it will melt in your mouth. Serve this typical mediterranean fish with white bread or rice and with a green salad. A glas of white wine will complete this delicious and easy to make recipe.

Steps:
- Prepare and clean fish. Wash and pat dry. Remove pectoral and ventral fins.
- Brush fish from all sides with olive oil. You may need about 3 tablespoons oil, but it can be more depending on size of fish. Put fish in a suited oven proofed dish (it should not be too large).
- Chop parsley (set about 1/2 tablespoon aside for topping), thyme and majoran. Pick sage leaves to pieces. Sprinkle herbs over the fish. Add bay leaf, black pepper seeds and cloves.
- Cover and marinade in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. I suggest to marinate for at least 2 hours, so that this can be done in advance. Turn fish once during this time.
- Preheat oven (390 F, 200 C).
- Take fish fish from marinade and remove as much of the herbs as possible. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
- Turn fish over in flour. It should only be slightly covered with flour.
- In a large skillet heat a little olive oil. Roast fish from both sides on medium to medium high heat until golden brown.
- Put fish and remaining oil in the oven proofed dish with herbs. Add about 1/8 to 1/4 cup wine. The ground of the dish should just be covered. Distribute butter in small pieces over the fish.
- Bake in oven for about 20 minutes. Fish is done when the dorsal fin can easily be removed. During baking sprinkle fish from time to time with sauce.
- Remove fish carefully from dish and place it on a serving plate.
- Remove as much herbs as possible from sauce. Add Worcestershire sauce and lemon juice to taste.
- Sprinkle some sauce and remaining parsley over the fish and serve the remaining sauce separetly.
- NOTE: If you like you can increase the amount of herbs in the recipe. The more wine you use the less lemon juice is required.
- NOTE: Use a dry white wine and serve the wine with the fish.

BAKED SEABASS WITH HOMEMADE GARLIC BUTTER AND HERB BREAD CRUMB TOPPING
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

- Coat a casserole dish just large enough to hold the fillets with 1 tablespoon butter. Place the fillets in the dish and season with salt, pepper, lemon zest and juice, and thyme leaves.
- Melt the remaining 1/2 stick of butter in a large skillet with the smashed garlic. As soon as the butter starts to bubble, turn off the heat and let the garlic infuse the warm butter.
- Remove the garlic chunks from the butter. Add the bread crumbs and lightly toss until all the butter has been absorbed. Turn the heat off, stir in the parsley and season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
- Spread a layer of bread crumb mixture over the top of each fillet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until bread crumbs are golden brown and fish is cooked through.

Tips:
- Choose the freshest sea bream possible. Ask your fishmonger for recommendations, or look for fish that has bright, clear eyes and moist, shiny skin.
- Use a variety of herbs and garlic in your sauce. This will give it a more complex and flavorful taste. Try using a combination of fresh herbs, such as parsley, thyme, and rosemary, and minced garlic.
- Don't overcook the fish. Sea bream is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it gently and carefully. Overcooked fish will be dry and tough.
- Serve the fish immediately. Sea bream is best served fresh out of the oven, with a squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkling of fresh herbs.
