Fish Kabobs
From Better Homes and Gardens [1] magazine
Ingredients
- 2 pounds fresh or frozen halibut, salmon, or swordfish steaks, cut 1 inch thick
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/3 cup olive oil
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon snipped fresh dill
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
Several drops bottled hot pepper sauce
1 large cucumber or zucchini, halved lengthwise and cut into 3/4-inch slices
12 small to medium mushrooms
1/2 of a 12-ounce jar roasted red sweet peppers, drained and cut into 1-inch pieces
12 pimiento-stuffed green olives
Directions
- Thaw fish, if frozen. Rinse fish and pat dry with paper towels. If necessary, remove and discard bones and skin.
- Cut fish into 1-inch cubes. Place fish in self-sealing plastic bag set in a shallow dish.
- For marinade, in small bowl combine lemon juice, oil, bay leaf, dill, black pepper, and hot pepper sauce. Pour over fish; seal bag. Turn bag to coat fish. Marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, turning bag occasionally.
- Drain fish, reserving marinade. On six long metal skewers, alternately thread fish, cucumber, mushrooms, red pepper, and olives. Brush with some of the marinade.
- For a charcoal grill, grill kabobs on the greased rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 8 to 12 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork, turning and brushing with reserved marinade halfway through grilling time. For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place kabobs on greased grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.
- Discard any remaining marinade and serve immediately.
