- The salsa is an equal mix of diced red onion and diced de-seeded tomato mixed with the juice of a lime an equal quantity of oil olive then seasoned to taste with salt and black pepper.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
