Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Boneless white fish fillets (e.g., cod or haddock)
- 120 g Greek yogurt (full-fat)
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 2 tbsp Ginger-garlic paste
- 1 tsp Garam masala
- 1 tsp Ground cumin
- 1 tsp Ground coriander
- 0.5 tsp Red chili powder
- 0.5 tsp Turmeric powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 2 tbsp Cilantro, chopped
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 10 pieces Skewers, soaked in water
Instructions
Cut the fish fillets into bite-sized pieces and set aside in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, combine Greek yogurt, lemon juice, ginger-garlic paste, garam masala, ground cumin, ground coriander, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt to form a smooth marinade.
Add the marinade to the fish pieces, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, allowing the flavors to infuse the fish.
Preheat your grill or oven broiler to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated fish pieces onto the soaked skewers, ensuring they are evenly spaced to cook properly.
Brush the fish skewers lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill or under the broiler, and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and slightly charred.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Serve hot with a side of cucumber slices or a fresh green salad for a complete keto meal.
