Lemon Gratinated Sea Robin Fillet

Lemon gratinated sea robin fillet, a simple and quick second course to prepare, with a delightful lemon scent. To speed up the recipe, you will need to buy 5 already cleaned sea robin fillets. If you can’t find them, ask your trusted retailer to prepare them for you while you complete your shopping. The sea robin, also known as red mullet, is a fish with firm and tasty meat, a white color, and a sweet taste. For the breading, I used homemade breadcrumbs. If you don’t have it, you can replace it with thicker breadcrumbs, which we call mollicato here. On my blog, you will find three recipes dedicated to this fish, simple to make but very tasty..
