Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Orata

    Preheat the wood oven to a high temperature (around 220°C/428°F). Rub the orata with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Place lemon slices inside the cavity of the fish.

  2. 2

    Make the Salsa Verde

    In a bowl, combine chopped parsley, minced garlic, chopped capers, lemon juice, and olive oil. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Charred Green Beans

    Toss green beans with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Set aside until ready to grill.

  4. 4

    Make the Pistachio Yogurt

    In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, chopped pistachios, lemon zest, and salt. Mix well and set aside.

Cooking

  1. 5

    Roast the Orata

    Place the prepared orata in the wood oven and roast for about 25-30 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  2. 6

    Grill the Green Beans

    In the last 10 minutes of roasting the fish, add the green beans to the grill and cook until charred and tender.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plate the Dish

    Once the fish and green beans are cooked, remove them from the oven. Serve the roasted orata topped with salsa verde, alongside charred green beans and a dollop of pistachio yogurt. Serve with grilled lemon halves.
