Step 2

Rinse the bream, make an incision along the belly and clean out the innards. Do not remove the roe or milt. Cut the fish into two halves, slicing almost but not all the way through, so it opens like a book. Rinse again and pat dry with paper towels. Spritz with lemon or lime juice, season with salt and pepper. Let marinate for 30 minutes.
