Grilled Fish Setubal Style
- large garlic clove, peeled, crushed and chopped
- 13 cup olive oil
- 4 pieces of firm-textured, white-meat fish (see note)
- 1/4 pound (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 6 tablespoons dry white wine
- Juice of 2 medium-size oranges
- Juice of 1 medium-size lemon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 small oranges, thinly sliced (see note)
- 1/4 cup minced Italian parsley
- Steep garlic in olive oil at room temperature for several hours.
- Brush fish well on both sides with oil, cover and refrigerate until shortly before ready to cook.
- Reserve remaining oil and let stand at room temperature.
- Make the sauce: In a small heavy saucepan set over low heat, let butter melt and turn to a rich topaz brown.
- Watch carefully so that butter does not burn.
- Add wine, orange and lemon juices, salt and pepper, and boil, uncovered and stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes, until sauce is reduced to a syrup.
- Set off heat until shortly before serving.
- When ready to grill fish, preheat broiler and set broiler rack about 6 inches below heat.
- Oil broiler pan, then brush fish generously on both sides with remaining oil.
- Lay fish on broiler rack over pan and grill, about 5 minutes to a side, just until fish flakes.
- (Boned fish fillets will cook more quickly than small whole fish.)
- While fish broil, pour sauce into a medium-size skillet and set over lowest heat.
- Lay orange slices in the sauce, covering skillet bottom.
- When fish are done, remove from heat and place on a large heated platter.
- Using a spatula, carefully lift orange slices from sauce and set aside.
- Add chopped parsley to sauce and stir to mix well.
- Drizzle orange-parsley sauce over fish in platter, then arrange orange slices, slightly overlapping, over the fish.
- Serve immediately.
