Ingredients

• White fish fillets (like cod or tilapia) - 300 grams
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Ground cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Cayenne pepper - 1/4 teaspoon

• Bell pepper - 1 medium, cut into chunks
• Red onion - 1 small, cut into chunks
• Skewers (wooden or metal) - 4

Steps

1. Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 15 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
2. In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
3. Cut the fish fillets into 2.5 cm cubes and add them to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Let it marinate for 10-15 minutes.
4. Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.
5. Thread the marinated fish cubes, bell pepper chunks, and red onion chunks alternately onto the skewers.
6. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.
7. Remove from the grill, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve with your choice of dipping sauce or side.
