4. Bake for 6 minutes ( this is an approximate time, remember that each oven is different) then turn the grill on and increase the temperature to 250C/ 475F/ 9 Gas Mark. Grill for 1-2 minutes (the skin should look slightly brown).

5. While the sea bass is in the oven you can prepare the dressing. To make the dressing, mix the olive oil with the lime zest, lime juice and capers. Mix in the coriander at the very last minute, just before serving, so it stays green and fresh.
