Roasted Branzino with Lemon-Herb Dressing
Whole-roasted branzino fillets drizzled with a zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette and served with crisp asparagus for a bright and refreshing Mediterranean meal.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Branzino fillets
1.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
1 tsp Fresh oregano
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.25 cup Cooked quinoa
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the branzino fillets completely dry with paper towels to ensure the skin gets crispy during roasting.
Place the branzino fillets on one side of the baking sheet and the asparagus spears on the other.
Drizzle 0.5 tablespoon of olive oil over the fish and asparagus, then season both with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Roast for 12 to 15 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
While the fish roasts, whisk together the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, parsley, and oregano in a small bowl.
Serve the roasted branzino and asparagus over the warm quinoa, finishing the dish by spooning the vibrant lemon-herb dressing over the fish.
