Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Today, I’ll guide you through making delicious grilled sea bream at home. This is a fantastic recipe that uses just one fresh sea bream to create an impressive dish.
Step 2
First, carefully remove the innards and gills from the sea bream. Use a knife to gently scrape them out, starting from the fin area. It’s important to scrape off all the scales thoroughly. This ensures a smooth texture without any unpleasantness when you eat it.
Step 3
Make several deep scores across both sides of the sea bream, about 2-3 cm apart. Scoring the fish helps heat penetrate evenly, cooking it faster and more thoroughly. It also allows flavors to meld better and helps prevent the skin from bursting during cooking.
Step 4
Heat a generous amount of oil in a frying pan over medium-low heat. Once the oil is hot, place the sea bream in the pan. Grill for about 5-7 minutes on one side until the skin is golden brown and crispy. It’s best to cook uncovered to achieve maximum crispiness. When one side is sufficiently cooked, carefully flip the fish and cook the other side until it’s equally golden and crisp.
Step 5
Wow, it looks incredibly appetizing! The grilled sea bream is ready, perfectly crispy on the outside and wonderfully moist on the inside. You can enjoy it as is while it’s hot and steaming, or serve it with dipping sauces like soy sauce or ponzu for an even richer flavor experience. It’s the perfect side dish for any meal!
