Method:

1. Make a base on a hot barbecue with the dried thyme, rosemary branches and bay leaves, overlapping them so that they cover a slightly bigger area than the salmon.

2. Carefully place the salmon on top of the herbs. Arrange the fennel around the edge of the fish.

3. Combine the lemon juice and oil and brush the salmon with it. Cover the salmon loosely with a piece of aluminum foil to keep it moist.

4. Cook for about 20 to 30 minutes, basting frequently with the lemon juice mixture.

5. Remove the salmon from the barbecue, cut into slices and serve with the fennel.
