Ingredients

1 sea bream

500 g potatoes

2 red peppers

breadcrumbs  to taste

parsley

extra virgin olive oil

salt

Preparation

To prepare the fillets of sea bream au gratin in the oven, first dedicate yourself to the preparation of the fish. In a dish prepare the breading of breadcrumbs and parsley.  Pass the sea bream fillets in the breading and keep them aside. Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes. Cut the peppers into thin strips. Put the vegetables in a bowl and season with extra virgin olive oil and salt. Stir and transfer the potatoes and peppers seasoned in a baking tray with parchment paper. Cook the peppers and potatoes in a static oven at 200 degrees for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally with a spatula. After 20 minutes of cooking, add the breaded fish if necessary, add more extra virgin olive oil. Continue cooking the sea bream fillets au gratin in the oven for another 15 minutes. When they are golden brown, take them out of the oven and if you want to adjust the fish in the oven with salt.

I did not add salt to the sea bream because being fresh and sea was tasty. Let the baked breaded fish cool slightly. Before enjoying it, add to the fillets of sea bream au gratin with potatoes and peppers raw oil and a cascade of fresh parsley.
