Preparation

  1. For the Gazpacho sauce: blend the QimiQ Classic, onions, coriander, peppers , garlic, vinegar and tabasco until smooth. Season piquant and chill.
  2. Preheat the grill to 230-280 °C.
  3. Brush both sides of the fish fillets and ciabatta slices with oil. Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper.
  4. Clean the grill grate with a brush. Place the fish, flesh-side down, on the hot grill and cook over direct heat with closed lid for 6-8 minutes, turning once, or until grilled on both sides. For the remaining 30-60 seconds roast the ciabatta slices until toasted on both sides. Remove the fish and ciabatta from the grill.
  5. Dice the salmon fillet and ciabatta bread. Pour some Gazpacho sauce into 4 shallow soup bowls. Arrange the rocket leaf salad, tomato halves and avocado on the sauce, top with the salmon and bread cubes, drizzle with olive oil and serve.

Hints

  • Instead of salmon you can also use the trout or char fillets. I usually use the Weber vegetable basket to grill the fish, this prevents the fish from sticking. You can also grill the fish on cedar planks.
