SEAFOOD BBQ RECIPES

Steps:

• Prepare the barbecue for indirect cooking over medium heat (190°C to 230°C- roasting setting). If you are using a Weber Q barbecue, set up your barbecue with a convection tray and trivet.
• Lay the snapper on a double layer of good quality aluminum foil. Make sure there is enough foil all around the edges to fold to create a parcel later.
• Stuff the cavity with the lemon slices and sprigs of oregano and thyme. Then splash some white wine all over the fish, and season generously with salt and pepper. Wrap the aluminium foil around the fish, making sure the parcel is completely sealed.
• Roast the snapper over indirect medium heat, with the lid closed, for 30 to 45 minutes until cooked to your liking or until the internal temperature has reached 54°C. The internal temperature will continue to rise 3°C to 6°C while resting (final doneness temperature for whole fish is 57°C).

Steps:

• 1. Strip the rosemary leaves into a pestle and mortar, then peel and add the garlic and pound into a paste with a pinch of sea salt.
  2. Muddle in 1 tablespoon of oil, the paprika, saffron and a swig of boiling water to make a marinade.
  3. Use little scissors to cut down the back of each prawn shell and remove the vein. Cut 1 orange into wedges, toss with the prawns and the marinade and leave aside for 10 minutes.
  4. Put the couscous into a bowl and just cover with boiling water, then pop a plate on top and leave to fluff up.
  5. Take a bit of pride in finely chopping all your colourful seasonal veg and chilli, and put them into a nice serving bowl.
  6. Pick a few pretty mint leaves and put to one side, then pick and finely chop the rest and add to the bowl with the juice of the lemon and the remaining orange. Add the couscous, toss together and season to perfection.
  7. Put a large non-stick frying pan on a high heat. Add the prawns, marinade and orange wedges and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the prawns are gnarly and crisp, then arrange on top of the couscous.
  8. Dollop with yoghurt, then halve the pomegranate and, holding it cut side down in your fingers, bash the back so the sweet jewels tumble over everything. Sprinkle with the reserved mint leaves and serve.
