  • 1 small bunch fresh mint leaves picked and chopped
  • 4 fresh mackerel fillets from sustainable sources, ask your fishmonger

Instructions:
  • Preheat a griddle pan on high heat until smoking hot. Use a speed peeler to slice courgettes into thin ribbons. Grill courgette slices until softened and slightly charred, in batches if necessary. Combine courgettes with drained beans, chili, and mint in a bowl. Rub mackerel fillets with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill skin side down for 3 minutes until crispy, then turn and cook for 2 more minutes.
