Step by Step guide

Step 1

Preheat the grill. Cut off the heads of the fish, gut them, and flatten them out. Carefully remove the backbone and take out all the bones up to the tail. Place the fish on the grill, season with salt and pepper to taste, then lightly drizzle with olive oil and grill for 3-4 minutes until cooked, flipping once.

Step 2

Meanwhile, make the salad. Peel one orange and remove all the white pith. Carefully cut out the segments and squeeze the remaining juice. Cut the second orange in half and squeeze the juice. Slice the fennel into thin pieces using a mandoline and add it to the oranges with the juice. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and finely chopped dill. Season with salt and mix well.
