A Very Simple Grilled Fish with Quick and Easy Sides | Home Movies with Alison Roman

If grilling a whole fish sounds intimidating to you, I’m here to tell you that it’s simpler than it sounds and well worth the effort. This whole-grilled branzino with preserved lemon dressing is special and celebratory, and a perfect excuse to switch up your summer grilling routine. This episode of Home Movies is mostly about how to grill the fish, but it’s also about how to take that grilled fish and turn it into a full-blown dinner, filled with extremely easy salads and casual sides that use up all the perfect summer produce.

Thank you for watching! Are you going to grill a whole fish this summer? Lie to me and say you’re going to!

You're the first American I've ever seen eating flesh out of fish head. I appreciate you show how great tasting and meaty fish head is. Very educational showing how to enjoy fish as a whole.

I paused just to say GET A SALAD SPINNER! Changed my entire relationship with anything leafy in the kitchen!

[gerrybgood]

I was a "late bloomer" to the olive world and now I have no idea how I went so long without them in my life. Cucumber and olive? Never would have crossed my mind but now I'm intrigued by the "mash up". This is why I admire your talent.

[JoshuaFazeli]

Omg, I live in Helsinki and I was walking in my hallway and looked out the window and saw my neighbor was watching your videos on YouTube on the tv!

We love you out here! ❤️

11:21, That look Alison gave after he said “can you stop the gibberish?” 🤣

[adrienneterzen]

Everybody waits for Home Movies every Tuesday. Everybody loves seeing you cooking on every Tuesday. I loved the fish and all of the sides to go with. Fish is always the answer to what to cook and is so tasty and light and perfect for a summer meal.Thank you, Alison, you are my favorite!! Yes l will grill a whole fish. Maybe a tuna or salmon. Maybe both.

[cassiesugito]

It's winter here I'm Australia. But I'm going to be grilling fish so I can have my summer moment with you! Love love LOVE your casual nature and easy going recipes. They make me feel like I can achieve anything ❤️

[bkbjorn]

Alison! You’re here😩Thank you for providing a much needed respite from this fresh hell of a Tuesday❣️

[CHarlotte-royi]

I just love how much personality the video has just by the way it’s edited!
Also Home Movie Tuesday is like the good old times waiting for a whole week to watch a new episode 😍♥️

[tatianaberg]

I am also a longtime “whole fish” aficionado, and hope this converts others!! Seriously it’s the most high impact for low effort dinner party main in the world

[davidcervantes]

It’s almost scary how timely your videos are. Literally last night I told my husband I wanted to try grilling not just fish but specifically branzino. Same thing happened to me back in April/May when I wanted to make strawberry shortcake, and with eggplant parm. Crazy relevant recipes! And your take on these dishes is always delicious! Thank you! Can’t wait to try this one!

[claireschu]

Alison! Thank you so much for teaching us how to cook and how to LIKE to cook, rather than demonstrating how to follow a recipe. I watch every episode even if it's something I'm not planning to make because I learn so much every time that I can apply to other things I invent in the kitchen. Please keep making home movies forever.

[lisaanderson]

Am I the only one that was waiting for a Home Movie this past Tuesday? I hope Alison is on vacation (which is something we all deserve)! If so, you go girl!

[jasoncromwell]

Excellent video as always. Can't wait to try everything. I usually like to crush my cucumbers by telling them they will never be good enough to be pickles.

[crashlikewaves]

Also I am in support of an “on location” series!! Vlog style! I don’t think Allison would ever agree but I’d definitely watch!

[Kumurajiva]

Alison is inspirational, I now feel I can grill a whole fish and serve it with my friends !

[katr]

Yesss Alison whole fish with bone in!!! I love grilling fish. It’s quick, effortless yet gorgeous and tasty!

[Kentokki]

I didnt know it was the David show. I love Alison's quirkiness and that's probably why I am so obsessed with this channel. She can educate me on how horoscopes tie in with cooking.

[tamiwithani]

Alison is inspirational! I wish i had friends and lovers, like she said, so i could cook her food for them.
