  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound barramundi fillets
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons ghee
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest
  • 4 cups assorted salad greens (e.g., butter lettuce, kale, watercress)
  • 1 cup grape tomatoes, quartered
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1/4 red cabbage, finely shredded
  • 1/4 cup lemon vinaigrette

Instructions

  1. Begin by heating your grill to a medium-high setting.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the avocado oil, onion powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper to create a flavorful marinade.
  3. Generously coat both sides of the barramundi fillets with this mixture.
  4. Grill the fish for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side, ensuring it’s cooked through and flakes easily when tested with a fork.
  5. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt the ghee over low heat.
  6. Stir in the lime juice and zest, then set aside.
  7. In a large mixing bowl, toss together the assorted salad greens, grape tomatoes, diced bell pepper, and shredded red cabbage.
  8. Drizzle with lemon vinaigrette and mix well to combine.
  9. Once the barramundi is perfectly grilled, transfer it to a serving platter and generously pour the lime-infused ghee over the top.
  10. Pair the fish with the vibrant herb salad for a refreshing meal.

Notes

  • Ensure the barramundi is fresh for the best flavor.
  • Adjust seasoning according to personal taste.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the salad as desired.
