Submitted by Oishi

"Superb, easy and quick recipe that is so impressive and delicious. I served with roasted peppers. Next time I am going to make the roasted fennel, lemon orzo and melon prosciutto salad Anthony prepared on his cooking show. I will post when I try the other recipes. The recipe i found on the internet did not state how much olive juice to use, so add to taste."

Absolutely wonderful!!! This dish is company-worthy and yet so easy to prepare. We loved the prosciutto wrapped around the fish and the sauce really put this dish "over the top" in flavor. What a winner. Thanks for sharing it, Oishi. Can't wait to make it again.
