How to make
Wash and dry the surface and bellies of the fish. Rub them with salt and black pepper.
Pour the tomato puree and wine into the baking pan. Place the sea bream fish on top and add 1 bay leaf (or 2 if smaller ones) in their bellies. Place the rosemary sprigs in them as well.
Wash the garlic cloves without peeling them, just remove the outer flakes. Crush them lightly with the wide part of a knife or palm and arrange them around the fish.
Drizzle them with olive oil, sprinkle with more salt, parsley and finely chopped chives and put them in a preheated oven at 450°F (230 degrees). Bake them for 10 minutes and reduce the heat to 360°F (180 degrees) for another 15-20 minutes.
An extremely easy and fast way to have a delicious oven-baked fish dish on St. Nicholas Day or on any special occasion.
Enjoy your meal!
