- Roughly chop the broccoli and place it in a food processor or blender. Pulse until it is finely chopped. Transfer to a microwave-safe bowl along with the frozen peas. Cover and microwave for 3 minutes until cooked. Drain and mix into the cooked quinoa. Zest and juice the lemon and add to the quinoa along with the salt and pepper.
- To make the mojo sauce, zest and juice the lime and add them to a blender along with the garlic, cumin, paprika, coriander, parsley, vinegar, 2 tbsp olive oil and salt. Blitz until smooth and adjust the seasoning.
- Preheat a griddle pan to smoking hot.
- Drizzle the mackerel fillets with 2 tbsp olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the fillets skin-side down in the pan, cooking for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy and the fish is cooked through. Flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes on the other side. Remove from the grill and set aside.
- Divide the green quinoa between four plates and top with the grilled mackerel fillets. Drizzle generously with the mojo sauce and serve.
