Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).

  2. 2

    Wash and scrub the potatoes. Cut them into even-sized chunks.

  3. 3

    Place the potatoes in a pot, cover with cold water, and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat.

  4. 4

    Once boiling, reduce heat to medium and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Drain and let cool.

  5. 5

    While the potatoes are cooling, prepare the mackerel. Brush each fillet with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.

  6. 6

    Grill the mackerel fillets for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  7. 7

    In a large bowl, combine the cooled potatoes, chopped parsley, diced red onion, and capers.

  8. 8

    In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

  9. 9

    Pour the dressing over the potato salad mixture and toss gently to combine.

  10. 10

    Serve the grilled mackerel alongside the potato salad, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
