Highland Berry Trout Kebabs

Method:

1. Pre-soak 8 wooden skewers in water to prevent them charring.

2. In a bowl, whisk together lemon juice, liqueur, seasoning and oil. Add trout and set aside for 10 minutes to allow flavours to absorb.

3. Thread trout onto skewers, alternating with shallot, courgette, mushroom and cherry tomato.

4. Pre-heat grill to high and brush kebabs with marinade before grilling for approx. 5 - 8 minutes.

5. Meanwhile, pour remaining marinade into pan, adding fruit. Bring to boil and reduce to a light glaze.

6. Serve on heated plates with a chive mash to side.

Note:
Time may vary according to thickness of trout, however it is cooked when the flesh becomes opaque or when it flakes easily when tested with a fork. Cooking time should be quick as overcooking can result in dryness.
