Bay Leaf And Lemon Marinated Swordfish Kabobs Recipes

BAY LEAF AND LEMON MARINATED SWORDFISH KABOBS

Steps:

• Combine first 6 ingredients in a large zip-top heavy-duty plastic bag. Add swordfish; seal bag, and marinate in refrigerator 1 hour, turning bag occasionally.
• Remove swordfish from bag, reserving marinade. Thread 5 swordfish cubes, 1 bay leaf, 1 lemon slice, 1 cherry tomato, and 1 bell pepper square alternately onto each of 4 (12-inch) skewers. Reserve 1/4 cup marinade; discard remaining bay leaves and lemon slices.
• Place kabobs on a broiler rack coated with cooking spray; place rack on a broiler pan. Broil 5-1/2 inches from heat 3 minutes. Turn kabobs over, and broil 3 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, basting occasionally with reserved 1/4 cup marinade. Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 kabob).
• NOTES : WW = 3.5 points per serving.

SWORDFISH WITH LEMON, GARLIC AND OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the lemon juice and olive oil.
• Place the swordfish cubes in a shallow glass dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
• Pour about 1/3 cup of the olive oil and lemon mixture over the fish and toss to coat evenly.
• Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours.
• Add the garlic and oregano to the remaining olive oil and lemon mixture.
• Set aside to use as a sauce.
• Preheat the broiler or fire up the barbecue.
• Cut the onion through the stem end into quarters and separate each quarter into individual pieces.
• Alternate the swordfish cubes with the onion pieces and bay leaves on skewers.
• Arrange the skewers on a broiler pan or on the grill rack.
• Broil or grill, turning once, until the fish is opaque throughout when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 3 minutes on each side.
• Serve hot, garnished with lemon slices and accompanied by the reserved sauce.
