Grilled Swordfish Skewers with Herbs and Lemon
52 min · 4 servings
Ingredients
□ 1 1/2 lb skinless swordfish steaks, cut into 1 1/4-inch cubes
□ 1 medium red onion, cut into 1 1/4-inch chunks
□ 1 medium zucchini, cut into 1-inch half-moons
□ 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided
□ 1 lemon, zested and juiced
□ 2 garlic cloves, finely grated, divided
□ 1 tsp dried oregano
□ 1 tsp kosher salt, divided
□ 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
□ 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
□ 1 cup dry couscous
□ 1 cup water
□ 1 tbsp unsalted butter
Directions
1. Soak wood skewers 20 minutes; heat grill to medium-high. Season fish and vegetables with oil, lemon, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper; mix parsley dressing.
2. Steam couscous with salted water and butter. Thread fish, onion, and zucchini loosely on 8 skewers.
3. Grill 8–10 minutes, turning every 2 minutes, until the fish reaches 145 F and vegetables brown.
4. Rest 3 minutes, spoon over parsley-lemon dressing, and serve with fluffed couscous.
Cook’s note: Keep a little space between pieces so the swordfish and vegetables brown instead of steaming.
