Ingredients

• White fish fillets (e.g., tilapia or cod) - 300 grams
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Cumin - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Skewers (soaked in water if wooden) - 4 pieces

Steps

1. In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
2. Cut the fish fillets into bite-sized cubes and add them to the marinade, stirring to coat well. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
3. While the fish is marinating, preheat the grill or BBQ to medium-high heat.
4. Thread the marinated fish onto the skewers, ensuring they're packed closely but not overcrowded.
5. Grill the skewers for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
6. Remove the skewers from the grill and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
