Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat the grill.
  2. Lightly rub the outside of the mullets with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with lemon juice. Sprinkle the insides of the mullets with lemon juice, salt and pepper.
  3. Place 3 grape leaves on a work surface, overlapping slightly. Place several parsley stems and 1 oregano stem in the center. Place the fish on top of the herbs and enclose with the leaves. Secure with toothpicks. Lightly oil the outside of the leaves. Repeat with the remaining leaves, herbs, and fish.
  4. Place the wrapped fish on the grill and cook until cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Remove from the grill and remove the toothpicks.
  5. To serve, place 1 wrapped fish on each of 4 plates. Slit open the grape leaf package and drizzle with the sauce. Serve with the remaining lemon wedges on the side.
  6. Garlic-Walnut Sauce:
  7. 3 home-style slices bread, crusted removed
  8. 6 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
  9. 1/2 teaspoon salt
  10. 1 cup finely chopped toasted walnuts
  11. 2 to 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  12. 1 cup Greek extra-virgin olive oil
  13. Run the bread under cold running water to saturate. Squeeze dry and crumble into a bowl.
  14. In a food processor, process the garlic with the salt to form a paste, scraping down the sides as needed. Add the walnuts and process until mealy. Add the soaked bread and 2 tablespoons of the vinegar and process. With the machine running, add the oil in a steady stream and process until creamy. (If the mixture is too thick, first adjust, to taste, with vinegar, then add water 1 to 2 teaspoons at a time.)
  15. Adjust the seasoning, to taste, and transfer to a decorative bowl for serving with the grilled fish.
