I love the simplicity of grilled whole fish. Pair this with greek salad and perhaps some sautéd potatoes. Whole sea bass are available at fish counters in supper markets, however, if you like to cook a larger fish to share, I buy excellent frozen sea bass from Seafood by SykesEither cook on the BBQ for a few minutes on either side or under a grill.
