Halibut and Cherry Tomato Skewers

Ingredients

Skewers

8-10, soaked in water if wooden

Salt

to taste

Black pepper

to taste

Fresh basil

1/4 cup, chopped

Garlic

2 cloves, minced

Lemon juice

2 tablespoons

Olive oil

1/4 cup

Cherry tomatoes

2 cups, halved

Halibut fillets

1 pound, cut into 1-inch cubes

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped basil, salt, and pepper to create a flavorful marinade.
3. Thread the halibut cubes and cherry tomato halves onto the skewers, alternating between the two for a beautiful presentation.
4. Brush the assembled skewers generously with the marinade mixture, ensuring they are well-coated for maximum flavor.
5. Place the skewers on the grill or under the broiler and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the halibut is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the tomatoes are slightly charred.
6. Once cooked, remove the skewers from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes to allow the juices to settle.
7. Serve the skewers hot, garnished with additional fresh basil for an extra pop of flavor and color.
