Its the first week of my kids’ summer holidays and I’ve been really enjoying my lazy mornings without the rush to wake them up or get their lunch boxes ready!Summer is my favorite time of the year!There’s fresh fruits and vegetables in abundance and let’s not forget the hot smoky barbecue that you can enjoy each day every day!!From fresh corn, to meats and seafood, grilled foods are probably the best thing about summer.They’re fun to eat, adaptable to every palate.And with the Fourth of July round the corner,we’re celebrating this season with a Summer BBQ party!
My fish kebabs are super easy and have tons of flavor.You can also use Chicken,Lamb or Shrimp for this preparation.I’ve used a combination of Swordfish,Tuna and Salmon here.I let them marinade for about two hours and then grill them for about 6-8 minutes on each side.
You can choose any kind of firm fish for these kebabs.I just love the different textures in the fish and they came out great!The flavors of mint and coriander goes really well with the fish and the reserved chutney can be served alongside these kebabs.The chutney has a bit of tang from the lemon, and slight hint of heat from the Jalapeño, that I love.I served it on a bed of Couscous Tabbouleh with grilled corn for our dinner.Enjoy.
