    How to Make Lemon-Caper Dressed Baked Sea Bass

    1. Preparation Step

    Preheat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan-assisted, or Gas Mark 7). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

    2. Dressing Preparation

    In a small bowl, combine 3 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil, grated lemon zest, 2 tbsp of lemon juice, capers, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of seasoning. Add 1 tbsp of water to thin the dressing slightly. Set aside the chopped parsley to be added just before serving to maintain its vibrant color.

    3. Fish Baking

    Arrange the sea bass fillets skin-side up on the prepared baking tray. Gently brush each fillet with olive oil and sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Bake in the preheated oven for 7 minutes, or until the sea bass is cooked through and the flesh flakes easily when tested with a knife.

    4. Plating

    Place the baked fillets on warm serving plates. Stir the chopped parsley into the dressing and spoon it over the fillets. If desired, garnish with additional parsley leaves for a touch of green.
