Method
- Clean the fish well and dry it gently.
- Make three diagonal cuts in the skin on each side.
- Season with salt and pepper to your taste and rub with the crushed garlic cloves.
- Add the lemon juice, without overdoing it so that it does not become too acidic.
- Let it rest in the marinade for at least two hours before frying (even better from the night before).
- Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Intense heat will only burn the exterior.
- Fry the fish for about 3 minutes on one side and flip it to cook on the other.
- Repeat the operation, flipping it, until it achieves the golden tone you like.
- Let it rest for a couple of minutes on absorbent paper to remove excess fat and serve.
