Light flavoured meats such as monkfish or chicken work well with my BBQ marinade recipe with ginger and lime.
Any citrus fruit works well with fish and the ginger just adds that extra tangy kick that makes chicken breast my other suggestion. You could even try prawns or shrimps.
The marinade needs 2 – 3 hours to work its magic so do remember to leave enough preparation time. Other than that its so easy to do I’m already getting hungry just thinking about it!
Ingredients:-
Juice of 3 limes
Zest of one lime
1 onion finely chopped
1 inch fresh root ginger
1 large clove garlic crushed
3 tbsp olive oil
Method:-
Place the fish / chicken in a flat bottomed bowl suitable for marinading. Mix up all the ingredients and pour over your fish / chicken and then sprinkle with the zest of one lime. Marinate for 2 -3 hours in the refrigerator and you’re ready for the cookout.
Monkfish will take about 10 minutes to cook and chicken breast another 5 minutes on top. Clearly this is dependent on how thick the meat is so vary accordingly.
As a serving suggestion, check out my fruity salad that I’ve done with scallops – just replace the scallops and you’ve got a really healthy meal.
Enjoy!
