Grilled grey mullet with garlic, orange and thyme

A Rick Stein-er.

Very simple & good. It looks very flash, but is really easy! Phew.
I've served it a few times with Bubble & Squeak. It needs something crispy to soak up the fantastic sauce.

 RECIPE



4 grey mullet each weighing about 350g/12oz
(I use a fillet a person for a starter or 2 fillets for a main)

For the Marinade:
juice of 1 lemon
120ml/5fl oz olive oil
2 tsp fresh thyme, very finely chopped
1 tsp sea salt
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
freshly ground black pepper
For the Sauce:
2 anchovy fillets, drained and finely chopped
1 orange
50ml/2fl oz water

Put the fish in the marinade for an hour, then grill for 6mins per side, or 6mins if using fillets. Keep the marinade & put in a pan.
To make the sauce, add the anchovies, half the zest & all the juice of the orange, the water & any juices from the fish to the pan. Bring to boil & whisk to combine.

That's it.
