Broiled Halibut Kabobs Recipes

GRILLED FISH KEBOBS WITH PARSLEY AND GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Kebobs: Put the salmon, halibut and tuna in a resealable plastic bag. In a medium bowl whisk together the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, parsley, thyme, salt, and pepper. Pour the oil mixture over the fish and seal the bag. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Thread each skewer with 2 pieces of salmon, 2 pieces of halibut and 2 pieces of tuna, alternating the fish on the skewers.
• Butter: In a small bowl, mix together the butter, garlic and parsley. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer the butter to the center of a 6-inch-square piece of plastic wrap. Fold the plastic over the butter and form it into a log, about 4-inches long and 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Refrigerate until firm, about for 1 hour. Slice the butter into 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick slices and transfer them to a plate.
• Put a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Season the fish with salt and pepper, to taste, and grill the skewers until opaque, about 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Arrange the skewers on a platter and serve the butter alongside.

TURKISH-SPICED HALIBUT SKEWERS WITH YOGURT SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut halibut into large chunks of equal size and thread onto skewers. You should have 4 kebabs weighing about 6 ounces each. Lay them in a shallow dish. Season on both sides with salt and pepper.
• In a mixing bowl, put cumin, coriander, paprika, red pepper flakes, onion, lemon, minced garlic and bay leaves. Add olive oil and stir together. Spoon mixture over fish skewers and leave to marinate for at least 1 hour.
• Put yogurt in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then add garlic paste, cayenne and cucumber. Mix mint, dill and parsley together, add half to yogurt mixture, and reserve the rest. Stir to combine. Set aside.
• Heat a grill or broiler. When it is hot, cook skewers for about 2 minutes per side, until just opaque. (Leave some lemon, onion and bay leaf clinging to fish, so they char a bit.) Transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle with remaining herb mixture. Serve with yogurt sauce on the side.

GRILLED HALIBUT SKEWERS

Steps:

• Mix first half of ingredients together in a non-reactive dish or large Zip Lock bag. Soak skewers in water until needed. Slice fish and peppers in to 1" or 1½" cubes/squares.
• Marinate fish for 1 to 2 hours at room temperature before cooking. Drain and save marinade for basting.
• Skewer fish and vegetables together and grill about 10 to 15 (depends or the size of your fish) minutes over Medium heat. Basting with reserved marinade.
• Note:.
• Getting nice cubes of fish will be easier if you start with a roast or a fillet vs. a steak.
• Lemon juice will actually cook the fish while marinating. Do not over marinate.
• Adding a little (very little) Apple or Hickory wood chips will add to the flavor.
• I found that the marinate time was better at about 3 to 4 hours if you have large pieces of fish. Say 1½" to 2" chunks. You may not want to leave it out that long, try the first hour or two in the refrigerator and the last few at room temperature Just for safety.
