Recipe courtesy British Trout Association
Prep time: About 15 minute, plus 1 hour to soak the skewers and time to heat up the barbecue
Cooking time: About 15 minutes
Skill level: Easy
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 4 thick British trout fillets
- 1 yellow pepper
- 1 red pepper
- 1 courgette
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lemon, juiced (plus 2 tsp zest for the sauce)
- Pinch dried oregano
- Salt and pepper
For the sauce:
- 125g feta, crumbled
- 125g Greek yoghurt
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- Freshly ground black pepper
Method
- Soak 4 wooden skewers in water for 1 hour.
- Cut the trout and peppers into evenly sized chunks, about 3cm wide.
- Slice the courgette into rounds.
- Thread the trout, peppers and courgette alternately on the wooden skewers.
- Place the skewers in a dish, pour over the oil and squeeze over the lemon juice.
- Sprinkle over the dried oregano and season with salt and pepper.
- Leave to marinate while you make the sauce: beat together the feta, yogurt, 2 tsp lemon zest and crushed garlic.
- Season to taste.
- Preheat the grill or barbecue. When ready to cook brush oil over the bars to help prevent sticking. Lift the skewers from the marinade and grill for about 10-12 minutes, turning once.
- Serve with the feta sauce.
