Grilled Fish with Tangerine and Marjoram

This vibrant grilled fish with tangerine and marjoram is a sophisticated yet simple way to enjoy whole fish. By grilling the fish over a medium-high heat, the skin becomes beautifully crisp while the flesh remains tender and aromatic. The combination of citrusy tangerine and the woody, herbal notes of fresh marjoram provides a light, bright flavour profile that perfectly complements varieties like branzino, sea bream or snapper.

As a diabetes-friendly main course, this dish is naturally low in carbohydrates and rich in lean protein and heart-healthy fats. It serves as a nutritious centrepiece for a summer lunch or a light evening meal. Serve it alongside a crisp green salad or some steamed seasonal greens to keep the meal refreshing and balanced.

Ingredients for Grilled Fish with Tangerine and Marjoram

  • 2 1-575g whole porgy, gray snapper, or branzino, cleaned

  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

  • 8 sprigs fresh marjoram plus 1 tablespoon marjoram leaves

  • 2 tangerines or small oranges, peeled, separated into segments, seeded

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

How to make Grilled Fish with Tangerine and Marjoram

Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill, or heat a gas grill to medium-high. Make 3 diagonal slices spaced about 1 1/2" apart on each side of fish. Season skin and cavity with salt and pepper. Stuff each fish with 4 herb sprigs and segments from 1/2 tangerine. Rub each fish with 1 tablespoon oil.

Grill fish until skin no longer sticks, 3-4 minutes. Using a metal spatula, carefully turn fish and grill until cooked through, about 3-4 more minutes. Transfer to platters and garnish with remaining tangerine segments and marjoram leaves.
