Ingredients

  • 4 oranges peeled and sliced
  • 1 orange zested
  • 1/4 cup olives pitted
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon parsley fresh, finely chopped

  • Pour and flatten the breadcrumbs on a plate.
  • Cover the fish fillet with the breadcrumbs on both sides. Press a bit to make sure that the breadcrumbs remain sticking to the fish.
