~ Grilled Fish and Vegetable Skewers with Barramundi ~
Weekends are made for grilling, and this weekend was no totally different. On the menu had been these fish skewers with chunks of barramundi, candy peppers and pink onion. I’ve been having some enjoyable with barramundi recently, generously offered by the oldsters at Australis who’re elevating barramundi in a few of the world’s most modern fish farms situated in Massachusetts and Vietnam. Australis is taken into account to be a pioneer in the usage of close-containment farming (methods which are thought-about the “gold commonplace” for sustainable aquaculture). Their greener means of farming has been acknowledged by main environmental organizations, together with Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch Program, Environmental Protection, and Blue Institute, whereas their Sensible Aquaculture practices have earned Australis the celebrated “Seafood Champion Award” by Seafood Decisions Alliance. It’s no surprise they discuss with their product as The Higher Fish.
I benefit from the gentle and buttery taste of barramundi, and now I can attest to how effectively it holds up on the grill. I used my favourite go-to marinade to coat the chunks of fish. Its secret ingredient is grated onion which provides a candy and tangy depth of taste that enhances the barramundi with out overpowering its gentle taste.
