Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) Garlic-Infused Oil, made with olive oil or purchased equivalent
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup (16 g) finely chopped scallions, green parts only
  • 1 tablespoon dried dill
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 pound (910 g) fresh swordfish, skin removed, cut into large bite sized cubes
  • 3 red bell peppers, cored, cut into large bite sized pieces
  • Vegetable oil

Preparation:

  1. Whisk the oil, lemon juice and mustard together in a large bowl until combined. Whisk in scallions and dill, then taste and season well with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  2. Add the swordfish and pepper pieces to the bowl as you prep them and toss well to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.
  3. Bring to room temperature before cooking.
  4. Thread the swordfish and pepper pieces alternately on skewers, as pictured. We like using metal skewers, but you could use sturdy, thick bamboo skewers as well.
  5. Prepare a medium hot grill, propane or hardwood charcoal, or preheat a grill pan indoors. Brush (your clean) grates with a little vegetable oil.
  6. Grill for about 6 to 8 minutes total, turning a few times. Get some nice char marks on there! Remove to platter your kebobs are ready to serve after a 5-minute rest. We enjoy these kebobs at room temperature, as well.

Tips

  • Always make sure that your grill grates are clean before beginning. Give them a good scrape and cleaning, then brush lightly with a neutral vegetable oil before grilling.
