Grilled Branzino

Grilling is a popular method for cooking branzino as it imparts a smoky flavor and creates a nice charred crust. The fish is often stuffed with herbs, lemon slices, and other aromatics to enhance its natural flavors.

Roasted branzino

Roasting branzino in the oven is another popular option. This method allows the fish to cook evenly and retain its moisture. It can be roasted whole or as fillets, typically with a drizzle of olive oil, herbs, and lemon.

Pan-seared Branzino

Pan-searing branzino gives it a crispy skin while keeping the flesh moist and tender. This method is quick and allows for the development of a flavorful crust.

Baked Branzino

Baking branzino is a simple and foolproof method. The fish is usually placed on a baking sheet, seasoned with herbs, lemon, and olive oil, and then cooked in the oven until tender and flaky.
