Citrus and Olive Oil Sauce for Roasted or Grilled Fish
- 3 navel oranges or 4 blood oranges
- 1 large or 2 small lemons
- 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
- Freshly ground white pepper
- 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons fruity extra virgin olive oil
- With a thin sharp knife, cut the tops and bottoms crosswise off the oranges and lemons to expose the flesh.
- Stand an orange on the work surface and, working from top to bottom, carefully cut off the peel and white pith in wide strips, leaving the orange flesh intact.
- Then, holding the orange over a bowl to catch the juice, cut between the membranes to release the orange sections.
- Drop the sections into the bowl of juice.
- Squeeze the membranes to extract the juice and discard the membranes.
- Repeat with the remaining oranges and lemons.
- Season the juice lightly with salt and white pepper.
- Add the olive oil and toss gently.
- Set aside until ready to serve.
- You can make the sauce up to 2 hours ahead.
