How to Make Roasted Whole Striped Bass With Salmoriglio

**Prepare the Salmoriglio:** In a medium bowl, combine the chopped parsley, oregano, mint, minced garlic, and extra virgin olive oil. Add the lemon zest and juice. Stir gently to combine. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
**Preheat & Prep:** Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C). Grease a large baking sheet with olive oil.
**Prepare the Fish:** Rinse the striped bass thoroughly and pat it completely dry with paper towels. Trim off any remaining fins.
**Assemble the Baking Sheet:** Scatter the rosemary sprigs and bay leaves on the prepared baking sheet. Arrange half of the red onion slices in a single layer down the center of the pan. Place a row of lemon slices on top of the onions.
**Place the Fish:** Place the striped bass on top of the onions and lemon slices. Season generously with salt and pepper.
**Top the Fish:** Arrange the remaining onion slices over the fish. Drizzle the fish with olive oil and place one lemon slice on top.
**Roast:** Cover the baking sheet tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for 20 minutes.
**Check for Doneness:** Carefully remove the foil and check if the fish is cooked through by inserting a fork into the thickest part; the flesh should flake easily. If not cooked through, continue baking uncovered for a few more minutes, until done.
**Serve:** Serve the roasted striped bass whole, with the prepared Salmoriglio sauce on the side. Enjoy!
