1. Halve and stone the avocado and use a teaspoon to scoop chunks of the flesh into a bowl. Gently mix all the other ingredients, except the fish, in with the avocado, then set aside.
2. Heat a griddle pan until very hot. Season the fish with pepper, and salt if you want, then drizzle with a little olive oil. Griddle the fillets for 2-3 mins on each side until charred and cooked through. Serve with the avocado salad.

Make it meaty or more substantial

Try the chunky salsa with griddled chicken breasts or steak. Or to make it more substantial, griddle thick slices of ciabatta before you cook the fish, then drizzle with a little olive oil. Pile the salsa on top of the bread before serving. Or serve with buttered new potatoes.

'The salsa's combination of avocado, lemon and olive oil was great and I would love to try the dish again using other types of fish. I served mine with cold new potatoes.'

  Really tasty - the avocado salsa compliments the fish very well. Will definitely try it with ciabatta slices next time.
