Best 7 Swordfish Kabobs With Balsamic Glaze Recipes

CITRUS MARINATED SWORDFISH KABOBS

Steps:

• Cut the swordfish steak into 16 bite sized cubes (4 used per skewer). Cut the bell peppers and onion into approximate 2" wedges (about the same size as the swordfish cubes).
• Thread swordfish and vegetables onto skewers, alternating vegetables and fish. If you are grillng indoors on flat surface, no need to treat skewers. If grilling outside and using wood skewers, you will need to soak the wooden skewers for 30 minutes, (fully submerged in water) prior to adding fish and veggies, to prevent burning once over an open flame.
• Mix together the ingredients for the citrus marinade. Brush sauce onto the kabobs, covering both swordfish and veggies. Turn kabobs to brush both sides with sauce. Let the kabobs sit and "marinate" in the sauce for a bit, while you get your outside BBQ started or heat up your griddle.
• Heat griddle (or outside BBQ) with a tiny bit of oil on medium high heat. Once hot, add kabobs. You should hear them sizzle once they hit the grill. Cook for several minutes, then rotate kabobs to other side. Continue cooking (turning to cook all sides), and basting with additional sauce, until swordfish is seared on the outside, and cooked through (6-8 minutes). TIP: If a piece of the fish isn't fully touching the griddle, simply use a fork to lightly press it down, to ensure a crisp seared exterior. Sometimes the veggies prevent a few piecesfrom being seared on outside; this is the best way I've found to solve that issue.
• Once kabobs are fully cooked through, carefully remove them from the grill, and serve! Enjoy!

SWORDFISH SKEWERS GLAZED WITH SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
• In a small saucepan, bring the balsamic vinegar to a boil. Lower the heat and reduce the vinegar to about 1/3 cup, and set aside.
• In a medium saucepan with boiling water, add the pearl onions, and cook until soft but still firm, about 4 minutes. Drain and let stand until cool enough to handle. Remove the skins, leaving the root intact and the onion whole.
• In a large bowl, toss the swordfish cubes, onions, and olive oil together. Season lightly with salt and pepper and toss again.
• Thread the fish, onions, and bay leaves onto wooden or metal skewers. Divide the ingredients evenly, alternating them on the skewers. Grill the fish skewers for about 1 minute on each side, for a total 4 minutes.
• To serve, drizzle with a little of the balsamic reduction.

GRILLED VEGETABLE AND SWORDFISH KEBABS

Steps:

• For the kebabs: Whisk together the olive oil, garlic, ginger, lemon zest and some salt and pepper in a small bowl. Put the swordfish in a large bowl. Put the peppers, onions, zucchini and tomatoes in another large bowl. Evenly divide the olive oil mixture between the two bowls and toss to coat. Cover and let marinate for about 30 minutes to 1 hour at room temperature.
• For the garlic aioli: Meanwhile, whisk together the lemon juice, mayonnaise, cilantro, parsley, garlic, mustard, vinegar and hot sauce in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• When the fish and vegetables are ready, preheat a grill over medium-high heat. (If using wooden skewers, soak in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling.)
• Meanwhile, thread the swordfish onto six 12-inch skewers. Thread the peppers, onions, zucchini and tomatoes onto individual skewers.
• Brush the grill grates with oil. Place the kebabs on the grill, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and grill until lightly charred and grill-marked and the swordfish is cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• To serve, spread 1 to 2 teaspoons of garlic aioli on top of each pita. Place the swordfish and vegetables on top, drizzle with more garlic aioli, and sprinkle with cilantro and parsley.

SWORDFISH KABOBS

Steps:

• Place swordfish in a non-reactive container. Whisk together zest, olive oil, coriander, herbs and salt. Pour marinade over swordfish and let marinate in refrigerator for 8 hours. Cut peppers and onions into 1-inch squares. Skewer your ingredients rotating them 1 at time, first the swordfish, then a pepper square, followed by a chunk of onion, and a cherry tomato. Brush with marinade and grill for about 2 minutes on each side.

SWORDFISH KABOBS

Steps:

• Combine garlic, cumin, chili powder, vinegar, molasses, and orange and lime juices in a small saucepan; bring to a boil over high heat. Boil for 2 minutes, remove from heat, and set aside. Halve lemons crosswise, and cut each half into 4 wedges.
• On each of six long metal skewers, arrange 4 lemon wedges, 3 bay leaves, 3 pieces of fish, and 2 tomatoes. Kabobs can be prepared up to this point and refrigerated for up to 6 hours before cooking.
• Heat grill to medium hot. Sprinkle kabobs with the salt and pepper, and spoon glaze over them. Grill until fish is opaque to the center and lightly charred, 3 to 4 minutes per side; brush with glaze several times while cooking. Remove skewers, and serve.
