THE IDEAL RECIPE FOR A QUICK PROTEIN FIX: SALMON KEBABS

With World Cup fever well and truly setting in (and it’s only September), we have prepared the perfect pre-match dish to fill you with protein and fuel! You’ll be competing alongside the professionals in no time…  

INGREDIENTS

• Four salmon fillets
• 1 red onion
• 2 yellow peppers
• 1 lemon sliced
• Sprinkling of dill, finely sliced
• Coriander, for sprinkling
• ¼ teaspoon of olive oil
• Pepper, to season
• 4 skewers

METHOD

1. Preheat your grill to medium-high. Combine oil and lemon juice in a bowl, then season. Brush the mixture over all salmon fillets, and then cut each fillet into four equal parts.
2. Slice your peppers and onions, then prepare your skewers by alternating the salmon and vegetable slices.
3. Grill the skewers until the salmon is cooked through, turning carefully once. This should take 8-10 minutes.
4. Once cooked, place on serving plate and scatter black pepper flakes and coriander over the top. Serve with sliced chilli, lemon wedges and a dipping sauce of your choosing – we’d recommend a lemon and dill mayonnaise
