Grilled Mackerel with Strawberry & Avocado Salsa

Last night was a very simple dinner as I was out until fairly late so I knew I had little time to prepare. I defrosted 2 mackerel fillets slowly in the fridge all day ready for grilling when I arrived home. I happen to love strawberries with mackerel although I usually make a strawberry salad - this time we had a strawberry salsa. Snuggled up beside a crispy skinned piece of mackerel. Fresh, healthy and quick. And great for a diet lunch too.


Ingredients:

2 mackerel fillets
200g strawberries, chopped
1 ripe avocado, chopped
20g fresh coriander, chopped
1/2 red onion, chopped finely
1 lime, zest and juice
1 tbsp. honey

Method:

Put the strawberries, avocado, onion and coriander in a bowl, Season with a little salt & pepper and add the lime zest and juice and the honey. Stir gently together to prevent breaking up the avocado. Set to one side.

Make cuts in the skin of the mackerel, season and brush with a little oil. Grill the flesh side up first for 2 mins and then turn to skin up and grill for a further 4-5 minutes until skin crispy and fish cooked.

Serve together with potato wedges if liked.
