Stuffed gilthead

Stuffed gilthead is a spectacular dish, and you don't need to prepare a separate side dish. This method of stuffing is much easier than the traditional one with skinning. You can fill the fish with your favorite filling, as long as it is not too juicy. Therefore, if the filling should contain tomatoes, be sure to fry them first.
