Ingredients
  

  • 3 lbs black sea bass whole fresh
  • 1 lemon or Lime. To clean fish, reserve 2 – 3 slices
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice or lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons fish bouillon powder form and low sodium
  • 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce low sodium
  • 1 small onion sliced
  • sprig thyme
  • sprig parsley

Instructions
 

  • If the scales are not removed, clean fish. A butcher knife is ideal for cleaning the fish. Completely remove the fins or trim them down with a pair of kitchen scissors. Working from the tail towards the head, scrape the scales away. Insert the knife into the anus near the tails and run your knife toward the head, splitting the abdomen. Remove all the entrails and rinse the fish thoroughly and make sure that no scales remain. Make a couple of slits on both sides of the fish and continue to clean fish with lemon or lime. Rinse with cold water, pat dry and set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 190°C / 375°F / Gas Mark 5. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lemon or lime juice, fish bouillon, oyster sauce and chili garlic sauce. Rub marinade all over fish (inside and outside). Leave some marinade to pour on fish prior to baking. Place onion, 2 – 3 lime or lemon slices parsley and thyme inside the cavity of the fish. Place fish on an oiled baking sheet or sprayed with cooking spray. Make sure all the herbs stay inside the fish. Pour remaining marinate over fish and bake covered for 30 minutes and 15 minutes uncovered. Serve hot with your favorite grain or pasta dish or even a salad.
