FISH SKEWERS WITH HERBS AND LIME



Fish Skewers With Herbs and Lime image

In this simple, speedy recipe, meaty cubes of fish are marinated with fish sauce and red-pepper flakes, then lined up on skewers and grilled until seared at their corners, but still juicy and tender inside. Topped with herbs and lime juice, it's a minimalist take that lets the flavors of good, fresh fish shine through. If you have a fish basket and would rather line up the cubes inside that, go right ahead. Just watch it carefully and adjust the cooking time if needed. If you're looking to add a sauce, this is lovely served with some garlic-spiked yogurt on the side.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 garlic cloves, finely grated, pressed or minced
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
3 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound thick, dense fish steaks, such as tuna or swordfish, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
Lime wedges, for serving
2 scallions, white and green parts, trimmed and thinly sliced
1/3 cup chopped dill, mint, parsley, cilantro or a combination

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.

SUMMER VEGETABLE SKEWERS

Of all the possible vegetables to grill on skewers, zucchini and eggplant are some of the best, turning velvety soft and richly flavored as they sear over the flames. In this recipe, they're quickly marinated in oregano, garlic and olive oil while the grill heats, then brightened with plenty of fresh lemon juice just before serving. Salting them for 10 or so minutes before grilling helps season them through and through, but you can skip that step if you're short on time.

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds zucchini or eggplant, or a combination, cut into 1-inch cubes
Fine sea salt
2 fat garlic cloves, finely grated, pressed or minced
2 tablespoons minced fresh oregano or marjoram
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
Lemon wedges, for serving
Flaky sea salt, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the grill to high. With a colander set in the sink, lightly sprinkle the eggplant or zucchini with a little salt. Toss well and set aside for 10 minutes.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine garlic, oregano and red-pepper flakes. Whisk in oil. Pat vegetables dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels, and add to the bowl. Gently toss to coat. Let marinate while the grill heats up.
  • Thread vegetables onto metal or pre-soaked bamboo skewers (see Tip), keeping the eggplant and zucchini on separate skewers, if using both vegetables. Reserve any leftover marinade at the bottom of bowl.
  • When the grill is hot, add the skewers. Cook, rotating them carefully every few minutes, until evenly browned and slightly charred in places, about 7 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter. Brush with remaining marinade and squeeze a lemon wedge all over. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your fish skewers and tomato relish.
  • Marinate the fish for at least 30 minutes. This will help to tenderize the fish and infuse it with flavor.
  • Grill the fish skewers over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning.
  • Make the tomato relish ahead of time. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the fish skewers with the tomato relish, grilled vegetables, and your favorite sides.

Conclusion:

Yugoslavian fish skewers with Serbian tomato relish is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout or party. The fish is tender and flavorful, and the tomato relish is a refreshing and tangy accompaniment. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
