Ingredients

Mullet - 2 pieces

Garlic - 3 cloves
Onion - 4 heads
Vegetable Oil - 1 fl oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Blend the herbs, garlic, oil, and a little lemon juice in a blender until you achieve a somewhat runny sauce.

Step 2

Gut the mullet and remove the scales. Make deep diagonal cuts on both sides of the fish at a 45-degree angle, spacing them about three centimeters apart.

Step 3

Fill the slits with green sauce. Place thin slices of lemon inside the cavity, and you can also spread some sauce inside.

Step 4

Slice the onion into rings and sauté it in vegetable oil until it is partially cooked.

Step 5

Place the onions on a baking sheet, then add the fish on top. Season with salt and pepper, and brush the fish with the same sauce or simply with vegetable oil. Bake for about 40 minutes at 320°F.
