You need to follow these instructions: Use Disk Utility to erase an Intel-based Mac - Apple Support
Just prior to Step 4, you need to select the View menu > Show All Devices. Then, you need to select the internal storage device. "Device" in this context means a hardware component with an immutable name such as "APPLE SSD... MEDIA".
That's what you need to select, and erase.
After that you can quit Disk Utility and return to the screen in your screenshot.
