Ingredients
- 1 1 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 2 1 2 large sprigs rosemary plus 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary, or 2 teaspoons dried rosemary, crumbled
- 3 3 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 2 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 1 1 tablespoon dry bread crumbs
- Lemon wedges, for serving
Preparation
Step 1
Light the grill.
Rinse the fish; dry the surfaces and cavities thoroughly.
Cut shallow incisions in a crisscross pattern, about 1 inch apart, in each side of both fish.
Season each fish cavity with 1/8 teaspoon of the salt. Put a rosemary sprig in each cavity or rub with 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary.
Rub the surface of both fish using 2 tablespoons of the oil, the garlic, the chopped fresh or remaining 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, and the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt.
Sprinkle the bread crumbs on both sides of each fish. Drizzle both sides with the remaining tablespoon oil.
Put the fish in a grill basket or onto a very clean grill rack. Cook over moderately high heat for 7 minutes. Turn and grill until golden and just done, about 7 minutes longer. Remove the fish carefully so it doesn't stick.
Serve the fish on a platter. Run a knife between the flesh and the bones and lift off the fillet. Turn the fish over and repeat. Repeat with the other fish. Pass lemon wedges.
