Ingredients

  • 300-400 g filleted dorado, skin still on olive oil
  • sea salt flakes
  • For the dressing, mix together:
  • 2 T olive oil
  • zest and juice of 1 orange
  • 1 cloves garlic, crushed
  • ½ t mustard
  • ½ T honey
  • 2 T shredded basil
  • sea salt and ground black pepper, to taste
  • steamed green beans, for serving

Cooking Instructions

Oil and lightly salt the fish. Place it on a cast-iron grill pan, skin side up, then slide under a hot grill until the skin is blistered. Flip the fish, then spoon over some of the dressing. Cook for a minute or two.
Lift onto plates (or shallow bowls) and pour over the rest of the dressing.
Serve, with the green beans, either hot or at room temperature.

Cook’s tip: Take care not to overcook the fish – it must stay moist to be at its best.
