GRILLED HALIBUT SKEWERS

Steps:

• Mix first half of ingredients together in a non-reactive dish or large Zip Lock bag. Soak skewers in water until needed. Slice fish and peppers in to 1" or 1½" cubes/squares.
• Marinate fish for 1 to 2 hours at room temperature before cooking. Drain and save marinade for basting.
• Skewer fish and vegetables together and grill about 10 to 15 (depends or the size of your fish) minutes over Medium heat. Basting with reserved marinade.
• Note:.
• Getting nice cubes of fish will be easier if you start with a roast or a fillet vs. a steak.
• Lemon juice will actually cook the fish while marinating. Do not over marinate.
• Adding a little (very little) Apple or Hickory wood chips will add to the flavor.
• I found that the marinate time was better at about 3 to 4 hours if you have large pieces of fish. Say 1½" to 2" chunks. You may not want to leave it out that long, try the first hour or two in the refrigerator and the last few at room temperature Just for safety.
