• 1 fresh thyme sprig
• 2¼-pound porgy, scaled and cleaned
• 1 garlic clove
• olive oil, for drizzling
• juice of 2 lemons, strained

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Cook the fennel in salted, boiling water for 10 minutes, then drain.

Put the thyme sprig in the cavity of the fish and season the cavity with salt and pepper.
