Instructions

  1. Prepare the fish
    Rinse the sea bass under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Make 3 diagonal slashes on each side of the fish, cutting down to the bone. This helps the fish cook evenly and allows the marinade to penetrate.
  2. Create the marinade
    In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, rosemary, capers, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a fragrant marinade.
  3. Marinate the fish
    Brush the marinade generously over both sides of each fish and inside the cavity. Insert lemon slices into the slashes and cavity. Allow to marinate for at least 10 minutes while you prepare the grill.
  4. Prepare the grill
    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Clean the grates thoroughly and oil them lightly to prevent sticking.
  5. Grill the fish
    Place the fish on the preheated grill. Cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Avoid moving the fish too much to prevent it from sticking or breaking apart.
  6. Add finishing touches
    In the last minute of grilling, add the halved cherry tomatoes to the grill in a grill basket or on foil, cooking just until slightly charred.
  7. Serve
    Transfer the grilled fish to a serving platter. Arrange the grilled tomatoes around the fish, drizzle with a little more olive oil, and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
