Method
- Heat the olive oil gently in a pan with the garlic and chilli until the garlic is soft. Squeeze in a little lemon juice. Lay the sea bream on a foil-lined baking sheet and make slashes down each side of the body about 1cm deep. Pour over a little of the garlic sauce and season.
- Heat the grill to very hot. Grill the fish for 8-10 minutes, turning once, until the skin is lightly charred and the flesh is just starting to turn opaque.
- Meanwhile reheat the sauce gently, taking care not to burn the garlic. Serve the fish with the remaining sizzling sauce and scattered with parsley.
