Monkfish

  1. Set the up BBQ to cook directly at a temperature of 200-220°c. The boneless fish fillets are evenly coated in the rub and allowed to sit for half an hour whilst the bbq comes up to temperature.
  2. Directly grill the fish turning every 3-4 minutes until the outside is lightly charred on all sides and the internal temperature is a minimum of 64°c. Allow the fish to rest covered on a warm plate for 5-10 mins before cutting into thick slices.
  3. Serve two or three slices of the fish on warm small soft tacos, topped with shredded lettuce, finely sliced cucumber and the salsa. An alternative rub idea is a tandoori rub or spices.
