Ingredients

  • White fish fillets (e.g., cod or tilapia) - 300 grams
  • Bell peppers (red and green) - 1 each, diced
  • Red onion - 1, diced
  • Garlic - 3 cloves, minced
  • Ginger - 1 tablespoon, grated
  • Soy sauce - 2 tablespoons
  • Chili paste - 1 tablespoon
  • Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Honey - 1 teaspoon
  • Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
  • Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Skewers - 4 (if wooden, soaked in water for 30 minutes)

Steps

  1. Cut the white fish fillets into 2.5 cm cubes and place them in a bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix together the garlic, ginger, soy sauce, chili paste, sesame oil, honey, lemon juice, black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.
  3. Pour the marinade over the fish cubes, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
  4. While the fish is marinating, prepare the vegetables by dicing the bell peppers and red onion.
  5. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
  6. Thread the marinated fish, bell peppers, and red onion onto the skewers, alternating between fish and vegetables.
  7. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.
  8. Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
