How do I grill a sea bream correctly?
Tips & tricks for perfect preparation on the grill
Do you want to grill fish and don't know how? If you have rarely or never grilled fish, you should definitely start with Sea bream. It is considered one of the easiest fish to grill. Be inspired by the many preparation options and just give it a try!
Grill sea bream
Basically, grilling a sea bream is very easy: 1. Season the sea bream fillet with thyme and garlic, for example, and cut the skin of the sea bream several times at a slight angle with the knife. 2. Then you can prepare the sea bream fillet on the grill or on the fire in just a few minutes.
Grill sea bream with skin
In most cases, sea bream is grilled whole with skin on. First you have to remove the skin, although most sea bream that you can buy are usually already gutted and descaled. Our sea bream, however, is already pre-filleted with the skin on, which not only saves you the effort of cutting up the fish, but also halves the cooking time. The skin keeps the fish nice and crispy and has more flavor.
Grill sea bream with aluminum foil
For example, you can grill the sea bream on the charcoal grill on a piece of aluminum foil. But it is also possible to put the sea bream wrapped in a piece of aluminum foil directly into the embers - for example on a campfire. To do this, cover the fish with some hot embers and take it out again after about 15 minutes. But which grill is suitable for grilling a sea bream?

Spices & marinades for grilled sea bream
Für ein besonders vielschichtiges Geschmackserlebnis probiere gerne verschiedene Gewürze und Marinaden aus. Dabei kannst Du mit einer gegrillten Dorade nicht viel falsch machen.
Frische Kräutermarinaden, die zu einem Pesto verarbeitet werden, geben der Dorade einen würzigen Geschmack und verbinden sich mit den Röstaromen vom Grill. Stellen ein solches Pesto mit Basilikum, Schnittlauch und Petersilie sowie gewürztem Thymian einfach selbst her.
Verarbeite die Kräuter mit Olivenöl, Pinienkernen und Parmesan einfach im Mixer und würze mit Salz und Pfeffer nach. Die Marinade kannst Du auch als Dip zu Gemüse und auf frischem Brot reichen.
Wenn Du nur Gewürze verwenden willst, greifen einfach zu Salz, Pfeffer und Thymian zum Würzen. In die Dorade legst Du vor dem Grillen zum Beispiel einfach eine Zitronenscheibe und je nach Geschmack etwas Fenchelkraut.
Eine Dorade auf dem Grill ist eine magere, schmackhafte Alternative zu Fischen wie etwa Lachs oder Forelle, die sonst oft gegrillt werden. Du kannst die Dorade problemlos und schnell zubereiten und so das feste Fleisch, das nicht auseinanderfällt, genießen. Tipp: Was für die Dorade gilt, klappt auch super mit dem Wolfsbarsch!
