While sea bream is available year-round, the flavor is amazingly delicious.

You can enjoy this foil-baked method any time of the year, especially when you crave some flavorful lemony taste.

You can find all the ingredients for this recipe at your local grocery store or fish market.

When selecting sea bream, opt for fresh, firm fish with clear eyes and a mild, briny aroma.

If you’re unable to find black salt, regular salt will suffice, though the unique flavor of black salt adds a delightful twist to the dish.

Feel free to adjust my recipe to your taste preferences or dietary restrictions.

For instance, you can replace sea bream with other mild-flavored white fish such as snapper or tilapia.

Additionally, you can experiment with different herbs and spices, such as cilantro, red paprika, and rosemary though the classic combination of oregano, black salt, and pepper complements the delicate flavor of sea bream beautifully.

Absolutely! Foil Baked Sea Bream pairs wonderfully with a variety of side dishes, making it a versatile option for any menu.

For an appetizer, serve my delicious Shrimp in Garlic Sauce, Spicy Salmon Tartare, or Tuna Carpaccio.

Add some Simple Boiled Red Potatoes as a side. Or serve with Cucumber Red Onion Salad or Garlic Tomato Salad for a complete and satisfying meal.

For a dessert, go with my Apple Cinnamon Cake, Raspberry Pavlova, or Cherry Pavlova.

To complement the vibrant flavors of Foil Baked Sea Bream, I recommend pairing it with a light, refreshing white wine such as Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc.

Alternatively, a crisp rosé or sparkling water with a splash of lemon would also make delightful and simple accompaniments.

If you have any leftovers (though I doubt you will!), store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.

When reheating, gently warm the fish in the oven to maintain its moisture and flavor.

• Ensure the sea bream is thoroughly cleaned and scaled before baking to prevent any unpleasant textures or flavors.
• Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the fish to help seal in moisture and enhance its tenderness.
• When wrapping the sea bream in foil, create a tight seal to prevent any juices from escaping during baking.
• Garnish the finished dish with fresh lemon slices.
• You may cut the head if you don’t like it.

This Foil Baked Sea Bream is a testament to the beauty of Mediterranean cuisine. It is a simple and elegant dish!
