- 4 (1 to 1 1/2 pound) whole fish, sea bream or sea bass, scaled and gutted, head and tail intact
- 4 stalks celery, sliced thin, leaves reserved
- 1 small bunch each parsley, thyme, and oregano (or any other mix of herbs)
- 8 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 lemons, sliced thin

Very Tasty, Awesome blend of various ingredients added a rich and delicate flavor to the Sea Bream I cooked. All the ingredients that were underneath and on top of the fish I took it out and there was no any bitter taste thereafter. Thanks for posting this recipe!

This dish was absolutely delicious. People that didn't like fish actually liked it. I did change it up, I used Bass filets instead of a whole fish. I finely chopped the herbs in my chopper, and sprinkled the herbs all over the fish. Only used about half of each herb bundle though, and more olive oil. I followed everything else according to the recipe. It still came out great, and I will definitely make this again. The reason I didn't give this 5 stars, and it could be all my fault...there was a very slight bitter taste in the fish..dont know if it was the lemon/orange peel? But it really didn't bother me or anyone else...it was a dinner for 10 people and there was nothing left!
