Lay fish on newspaper. Roll and fold up fish like a package.
Run under cold water until paper in completely wet. Gently shake off excess.
Place on a cookie sheet and bake at 375 – 400 degrees until the paper is dry and beginning to brown.
Remove from the oven. Gently cut paper length wise with a sharp knife or scissors. Don’t gouge the fish!
Gently fold the last layer of paper away from the fish. This will pull the skin away from the fish.
Invert onto a plate and pull the paper away from the other side removing the skin.
Serve with lemon wedges and/or fresh basil and mayo.
Once the first side is eaten, you can pick up the tail and pull forward removing almost all of the bones.
Enjoy.
