Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds firm white fish fillets (such as cod or halibut)
- 1 whole lemon
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 skewers wooden skewers, soaked
Instructions
Cut the fish fillets into 1.5-inch cubes and set aside.
Juice the lemon into a mixing bowl and add the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped parsley, dill, rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Place the fish cubes into the marinade and ensure each piece is coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat or prepare coals until hot.
Thread the marinated fish cubes onto the soaked wooden skewers, distributing the pieces evenly among them.
Grill the skewers for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and has light grill marks. Take care not to overcook.
Remove the skewers from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
Serve the skewers warm, with extra lemon wedges on the side if desired.
