About 15 minutes before cooking fish, bring 1" of water to a boil in large pot. Add sliced fennel and cook 5-7 minutes till tender. Drain; return to pot and mist with spray. Srpinkle with pepper. Cover and keep warm.
Cover a baking sheet with foil. Place fish on sheet, Broil 4" from heat till opaque. Serve the fish with the fennel. Sprinkle with lemon juice and orange if using.

* I have not tried this yet so am not even sure about the sliced fennel but I figured for sure someone here will know. I expect you would have to use a morter and pestle to do this. sounds good though !
