Best Grilled Fish On Skewers Recipes

FISH SKEWERS WITH HERBS AND LIME

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high. In a mixing bowl, combine garlic, fish sauce and red-pepper flakes. Whisk in oil. Add fish cubes and gently toss to evenly coat. Let marinate while the grill heats up.
• Thread marinated fish onto metal or pre-soaked bamboo skewers (see Tip), pushing them up so they touch. This keeps them from overcooking.
• When the grill is hot, lightly brush the grates with oil and add the skewers. Cook until slightly charred in places, about 2 to 4 minutes, rotating them carefully halfway through.
• Transfer to a serving platter, and immediately squeeze 2 or 3 lime wedges on top of the fish while still hot. Garnish fish with scallions and herbs, and serve with more lime wedges on the side.

GRILLED SHRIMP SKEWERS

Steps:

• 1. Soak bamboo skewers. Melt butter and olive oil together and stir in garlic and parsley.
• 2. Thread shrimp on skewers. Preheat grill or broiler.
• 3. Brush butter mixture on shrimp and either grill or broil until shrimp is pink.
• 4. Do not over cook.

GRILLED FISH KEBOBS WITH PARSLEY AND GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Kebobs: Put the salmon, halibut and tuna in a resealable plastic bag. In a medium bowl whisk together the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, parsley, thyme, salt, and pepper. Pour the oil mixture over the fish and seal the bag. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Thread each skewer with 2 pieces of salmon, 2 pieces of halibut and 2 pieces of tuna, alternating the fish on the skewers.
• Butter: In a small bowl, mix together the butter, garlic and parsley. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer the butter to the center of a 6-inch-square piece of plastic wrap. Fold the plastic over the butter and form it into a log, about 4-inches long and 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Refrigerate until firm, about for 1 hour. Slice the butter into 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick slices and transfer them to a plate.
• Put a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Season the fish with salt and pepper, to taste, and grill the skewers until opaque, about 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Arrange the skewers on a platter and serve the butter alongside.

GRILLED FISH KABOBS WITH CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Cut swordfish and salmon into 24 cubes (about 1 1/2 inches each); thread against the grain on 8 skewers, alternating with tomatoes.
• In a blender, puree basil, oil, and garlic until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Reserve half.
• Brush kabobs with half of basil oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill until fish is opaque, 6 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally. With a clean brush, coat kabobs with reserved basil oil. Serve immediately.

GRILLED FISH ON SKEWERS

Steps:

• In a bowl mix all ingredients apart from the fish.
• Add the fish to the marinade and make sure it is coated all over.
• Leave to marinate for at least two hours, stirring from time to time.
• Divide the fish onto four skewers. (Tip: If you use bamboo ones soak them in water beforehand to stop them from burning).
• Place under a hot grill or onto the BBQ and leave for about 8 minutes or until cooked through.
• Turn only once.
