Marinated Seafood Skewers With a Dipping Sauce image

Another experiment and I think another success, to me this was a wonderful combination of flavours and the fish was gorgeous. I used Tuna, Salmon and Prawns but feel free to experiment with other fish, just remember you need quite thick fish for skewers. I served mine over stir-fry vegetables which not only went really well but made for a very yummy, healthy, light dinner enjoyed by us all. The ingredients listed below was enough to make 6 skewers I allowed for 2 per person so if you have bigger eaters you will have to adjust amounts to make more. The marinade will be plenty even if you buy more seafood.

3 garlic cloves, crushed
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon fish sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon ketjap manis
2 teaspoons sweet chili sauce
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 teaspoons lemongrass, finely chopped
3 green onions, sliced thinly
6 long wooden skewers, soaked in water for at least 30 min's prior to using

Steps:

  • Combine all the marinade ingredients in a large bowl or storage container, add chopped fish and prawns, refrigerate for several hours.
  • Thread fish onto skewers alternating, tuna, salmon, prawn etc. reserve marinade.
  • In summer these would be great done on the BBQ, as it is winter I did them under the grill about 6 inches from the heat. Cook for about 8-10 Min's or until done, turning once and basting with reserved marinade during cooking.
  • Dipping Sauce.
  • In a saucepan add water and sugar and cook over a medium high heat until the sugar dissolves.
  • Turn the heat down, add soy, vinegar, fish sauce, lime juice, zest, sweet chili sauce, stir to combine, remove from heat, stir in coriander and serve in individual dipping bowls.
  • I served mine over stir-fry vegetables, I did a mix of bean sprouts, snow peas, shredded carrot and red pepper.

I tried this recipe and it was a disaster. The seafood was overcooked and the dipping sauce was bland.
