Ingredients

  • 2 red onions
  • 2 yellow pointed peppers
  • 2 red pointed peppers
  • 4 monkfish fillets with the backbone in of about 250 g each
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp ras el hanout
  • 4 tips of thyme
  • 4 tips of rosemary
In advance
  1. Light the charcoal in the Big Green Egg and heat, with the Cast Iron Grid, to a temperature of 200°C.
  2. Meanwhile, peel the red onions and cut into slices about 2 cm thick.
Method
  1. Place the peppers on the grid and close the lid of the EGG. Roast the peppers for about 5 minutes. In the meantime, rub the monkfish fillets and onion slices with olive oil. Sprinkle the monkfish fillets with ras el hanout and salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Turn the peppers over and put the monkfish fillets and onion slices on the grid. Grill the onion slices for about 3 minutes. Turn over and grill for another 3 minutes. Grill the monkfish for 4-5 minutes and then turn. Put a sprig of thyme and rosemary into the backbone of each fillet and cook the monkfish for 4-5 minutes until it reaches a core temperature of 62°C. You can measure the temperature with the Instant Read Thermometer.
  3. Remove the onions from the EGG. When the monkfish has reached the specified core temperature, remove the peppers from the EGG. Carefully remove the skin, stalks and seeds from the peppers. Cut the flesh into strips and sprinkle over salt and pepper to taste. Separate the onion rings.
  4. Place a grilled monkfish fillet on each plate, then arrange the onion rings and pepper strips around it.
