Method
Ingredients
- 4 tsp Bart Cajun Seasoning
- 1 lime, zest only
- Pinch of brown sugar
- 2 Salmon fillets, skin on
- Oil to brush
- Bamboo skewers, soaked for 30 minutes
For the Avocado & Mango Salsa:
- 2 avocados, cut into 1cm cubes
- 1 mango, cut into 1cm cubes
- 1 red onion, finely diced
- 1 tsp Bart Chilli Flakes
- A large handful fresh coriander, roughly chopped
- Salt
- Black Pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 lime, juiced
Method
1. Add the lime zest and pinch of brown sugar to the Cajun blend and mix well. Pat the fish dry, checking for bones, then slice in half lengthways. Gently skewer from top to tail, then sprinkle the Cajun mix over the salmon until thoroughly covered with a thick layer. Press gently and then flip the salmon over and repeat.
2. To make the salsa, combine the mango, avocado and red onion with the onion and lime. Add the Chilli Flakes and seasoning, then mix gently. Fold through the chopped coriander and then set to one side.
3. On a medium to hot heat, place the salmon fillet side down on the oiled BBQ grill. After 2-3 minutes, a blackened crust should start to appear and the salmon fillet should have changed colour around halfway up. Turn fish and cook the skin side for a further 2-3 minutes.
4. Serve with the salsa, charred corn, a handful of watercress and bread, if you wish.
