Preparation
Step 1
* Put rice in the rice cooker with broth or water and a generous pinch of salt and set for brown rice (takes about 1 1/2 hours)
* Rinse filet and cut in half. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and place in the bottom of a foil dish (for the grill) or oven-proof one (for the oven).
* Combine remaining ingredients except lemon juice and mix to blend, grating in the zest of the lemon and the garlic clove and seasoning with salt and freshly ground pepper. Can set aside to blend flavours if you have the time. Spoon over the fish and sprinkle with some Malden salt. Cover tightly with foil.
If cooking in Breville oven, cook at 450 degrees for 15 minutes.
* Preheat outside burners of grill on high. Add dish with fish to middle, unlit, portion of the grill, close cover and cook for exactly 15 minutes.
* Remove from heat and let rest for a while. Spoon the rice into two bowls, nestle the fish in the middle and divide the sauce and juices evenly between both servings. Squeeze a wedge of lemon over each and season lightly with Maldon salt again, if needed.
