How to cook Vegetable Stuffed Sea Bream Fillet Roll-ups?
Start the cooking process by preparing the fish fillets. To avoid the dirty work and the risk of cutting the fillets inappropriately, I suggest buying already sliced fillets. This is how I usually do and I’m happy to save time and avoid extra stress. Pull the little bones from the fillets if there are any, and make sure the fish scales are removed.
Now it’s time to season the fish fillets on both sides. Use salt, ground black pepper, paprika, and some granulated garlic. You can season the sea bream fillets with whatever spices you like most. Feel free to experience and try new flavors. Set aside the fillets and allow the spices to enhance the taste of the fish until you get your attention to the veggies.

Heat a pan and add some olive oil. Drop in the crushed garlic cloves so that the oil gets infused. Then add the leek and allow it to cook for about one minute. Secondly, add the carrots and mix. Allow it to cook for another 2-3 minutes on medium heat. Finally, add the bell pepper slices and cook everything for an additional 2-3 minutes. Do not cover the veggies with a lid during cooking
