Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) snapper fillets
- 2 small zucchini
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 medium red onion
- 0.25 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 12 sticks (soaked in water for 30 minutes) wooden skewers
Instructions
Cut the snapper fillets into 2-inch cubes and set aside.
Slice the zucchini into thick rounds, dice the red bell pepper into 2-inch chunks, and cut the red onion into similar-sized pieces.
In a medium bowl, prepare the marinade by whisking together honey, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, black pepper, and sea salt until well combined.
Add the cubed snapper to the marinade and gently toss to coat. Let it marinate for 10-15 minutes while preparing other ingredients.
Thread the snapper pieces alternately with zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion onto the soaked wooden skewers.
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate to prevent sticking.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the snapper is opaque and flakes easily with a fork and the vegetables are lightly charred.
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a minute before serving.
Serve the Honeyed Snapper Kebabs hot with a side of rice, salad, or your preferred accompaniment.
