- 4 cloves of garlic
- 1 lemon
- 1 glass of white wine
- 50 ml extra virgin olive oil
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste

Elaboration:
- Preparing the vegetablesPreheat the oven to 200 °C. Peel the potatoes and cut them into halves, as well as the onions, and place them on a baking tray and season with salt and a little olive oil. Bake for about 20 minutes to soften the potatoes.
- Preparing the sea breamWhile the vegetables are baking, clean the sea bream, making sure it is well de-veined and gutted. Make two or three diagonal cuts in the backs of the fish and place a slice of lemon in each cut. Season the sea bream with salt and pepper on both sides and place a few whole cloves of garlic on the tray next to the fish.
- Bake the sea breamPlace the sea bream on top of the pre-cooked vegetables, drizzle with the white wine and olive oil. Place the tray in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, until the fish is cooked and golden brown. If it browns too quickly, cover lightly with aluminium foil.
