Directions

  1. Mix the garlic, rosemary, capers, lemon zest, and olive oil in a bowl. Roll the fish in the oil and herbs. Leave to sit in the fridge for 10-15 minutes.
  2. While the fish is marinating, preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  3. Put the fish in a shallow baking dish in a single layer. Cover with the remaining marinade. Season with salt and pepper. Layer the lemon slices over the fish, overlapping them to look like scales. Pour lemon-water mixture around the fish.
  4. Bake on a high shelf for 15-20 minutes or until the fish is just done. The lemon slices will be golden and caramelized.
  5. Take the fish out of the oven and let it sit for about 5 minutes to steam and finish cooking. Serve immediately.
