Strategy Guide
Step 1: Prep the Ingredients
- Place the sink stopper and turn on the faucet. Wash the asparagus and carrots in the sink.
- Once clean, return the veggies to their tray and drain the sink.
- Slice the zucchini, lemons, and thyme on the cutting board and return them to the tray.
- Cut the salmon into chunks, remove the bones and discard the head, bones, and tail into the trash. Keep the fillets on the tray.
- Julienne the ginger into fine strips and set aside.
Step 2: Prepare the Grill
- Use tongs to place charcoal into the grill in two rounds until full.
- Light the coals with the blowtorch until they turn red and start smoking.
- Place the grill plates on top — first the solid plate, then the mesh grill rack.
Step 3: Grill the Veggies and Fish
- While the grill heats up, marinate the ingredients.
- Brush oil onto the asparagus, fish fillets, and carrots. Dip the brush for each ingredient.
- Sprinkle chili powder, pepper, and salt evenly over the fish and vegetables.
- Once the grill is hot, place the fish, asparagus, and carrots on it to cook until done, then return them to the tray.
Step 4: Make the Sauce
- Add water, wine, sugar, and butter into a saucepan and turn on the heat.
- Use a flat spatula to stir counterclockwise until combined and the sauce starts to thicken.
- Add barbecue sauce, Heinz chili sauce, chopped green onions, and julienned ginger.
- Continue stirring until smooth, then pour the sauce into a glass bowl.
Step 5: Plate the Dish
- Place the grilled fish in the center of the blue plate and lemon slices at the lower right corner.
- Lay the grilled asparagus beneath the fish and the carrots to its upper right side.
- Use a spoon to drizzle the sauce over the fish.
- Sprinkle ground black pepper over the top, then finish with a few sprigs of fresh thyme.
And that’s it — this stage is cleared!
