Grilled Lemon Bronzino Recipe | Arteflame Grill Seafood Delights

Introduction

Elevate your outdoor dining with this Grilled Lemon Bronzino recipe, a simple yet sophisticated dish that’s perfect for any Arteflame grill enthusiast.

This recipe takes full advantage of the grill's ability to impart a smoky flavor, complementing the freshness of the bronzino with the aromatic presence of thyme, bay leaves, and lemon.

Ingredients:

• 2 whole bronzino fish, filleted and scaled
• 2 cloves of garlic
• 2 lemons
• 2 large sprigs of thyme
• 2 fresh bay leaves
• Good olive oil (such as Bonacci)
• Sea salt and freshly ground pepper

Instructions

1. Prep the Grill: Preheat your Arteflame grill to a medium-high temperature.

2. Prepare Lemons: Cut one lemon into four slices. Place the slices directly on the grill grate, allowing them to char slightly for added flavor.

3. Stuff the Bronzino: Stuff each bronzino cavity with a sprig of thyme, one bay leaf, and two slices of the grilled lemon.

4. Season: Rub the outside of each bronzino with olive oil, then season generously with sea salt and freshly ground pepper to enhance the flavors.

5. Grill: Place the bronzino on the grill. Cook each side for approximately 5-7 minutes, or until the skin becomes crispy and the fish is cooked through, indicating it's ready to be served.

6. Serve: Garnish the bronzino with fresh lemon wedges, a sprinkle of sea salt, and a dash of freshly ground pepper. The combination of grilled lemon and fresh herbs will bring out the best in the fish.

Tips

• For extra flavor, marinate the fish in olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice for 30 minutes before grilling.
• Use a grill basket to prevent the fish from sticking to the grates.
• Grill additional lemon slices to squeeze over the fish for a smoky citrus boost.

Variations

• Substitute thyme with rosemary for a different herbal note.
• Add capers or olives to the stuffing for a Mediterranean twist.
• Use a whole trout or snapper instead of bronzino if preferred.

Best pairings

• Pair with a crisp white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio.
• Serve with a side of grilled asparagus or roasted potatoes.
• A light arugula salad with olive oil and balsamic vinegar complements the dish beautifully.

Conclusion

This Grilled Lemon Bronzino recipe is a delicious and easy way to enjoy fresh seafood with bold, smoky flavors. Whether serving for a summer gathering or a cozy dinner, this dish is sure to impress.
