Roast Fish Recipe/Oven Roast Fish/ Jerene's Eats

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Rinse the fish under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

Place the fish on a large piece of aluminum foil or a baking dish.

Drizzle olive oil over the fish, rubbing it into the skin and inside the cavity.

Season the fish with salt and black pepper, both inside and out.

Stuff the cavity of the fish with lemon slices, minced garlic, fresh herbs, and the green scotch bonnet if using.

Wrap the fish in the foil or cover the baking dish with foil to keep it moist during cooking.

Place the fish in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before unwrapping.

Serve the fish with additional lemon slices and fresh herbs, if desired.
