For optimal flavor, use the freshest sea bass available. The simpler the recipe, the more the quality of the ingredients shines through. If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the sea bass in a grill pan on the stovetop or broil it in the oven. Adjust cooking times accordingly. Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or dill, or a lemon wedge for an extra touch of freshness. Consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade for a hint of spice. Serve with a light salad, grilled vegetables, or a simple rice pilaf for a complete and satisfying meal.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPrepare the Grill: Preheat an outdoor grill to medium heat (about 350-400°F or 175-200°C) and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)
02
StepPrepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, crumbled bay leaf, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper. (2 minutes)
03
StepMarinate the Sea Bass: Generously rub the marinade all over the sea bass fillet, ensuring to coat both sides and, if the skin is on, under the skin as well. (3 minutes)
04
StepGrill the Sea Bass: Place the sea bass on the preheated grill. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through. If the skin is on, start skin-side down to achieve crispy skin. (8-10 minutes)
05
StepServe: Remove the sea bass from the grill and let it rest for a minute before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more succulent and flavorful fish. (1 minute)
