Delicius Grilled Mackerel in Olive Oil – 90g

Rich. Savoury. Proper grilled flavour — a pantry staple with real character.

This is mackerel done the traditional way. Premium fillets of Scomber japonicus, carefully hand-cleaned, lightly grilled, and preserved in quality olive oil to lock in flavour and tenderness.

The gentle grilling deepens the natural richness of the fish, giving it a more complex, savoury profile than standard tinned seafood. It’s ready to enjoy straight from the tin — no prep required.

Why it earns a spot in the Underground Chef pantry

Because mackerel brings something different. It’s richer, more flavourful than tuna, and incredibly versatile — perfect when you want a protein that adds real personality to a dish. It’s also naturally high in Omega 3, making it as nutritious as it is delicious.

Chef Ian’s best ways to use it

• Simple on toast: crusty sourdough + mackerel + lemon + cracked pepper
• Quick pasta: toss through warm pasta with olive oil, garlic, parsley, and chilli
• No-fuss salad: potatoes, green beans, and mackerel — instant classic
• Antipasto platter: serve alongside olives, pickles, and crusty bread
• Rice bowls: warm rice, greens, and flaked mackerel with lemon
• Protein upgrade: add to grain bowls or vegetable dishes

Chef’s tip

Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a splash of good vinegar — it balances the richness beautifully.
