Ingredients:

• 2 (about 2 pounds/1 kg each) sea bream, uncleaned
• 6 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic
• Salt and pepper
• 1 lemon

How to cook Sea Bream San Sebastian Style:

• Gut the sea bream, remove their gills, scale and wash them.
• Sprinkle them with salt and pepper, then set aside in a cool place until you are ready to cook them.
• A Spaniard would hang them up to air (orear), but this is not necessary for those who lack a cool larder and hooks.
• About an hour before the meal, anoint the fish with some of the olive oil.
• Grill the sea bream over glowing charcoal (oak charcoal, if you seek the authentic Basque flavor).
• Turn them once so that they are well browned on both sides.
• Meanwhile fry the cloves of garlic the rest of the olive oil.
• Place the grilled sea bream on a platter. Pour the olive oil and garlic over them, followed by squeezes of lemon juice, and serve.
