South Beach Fish Kabobs

"Whether you are on the South Beach diet or not, the marinade for the fish is very tasty. These can be eaten on Phase I of the diet. So far I've tried these kabobs using tuna steak and I'll be trying it out on salmon next. This recipe is courtesy of the South Beach Diet book."

  1. Fantastic!! This is one of my favorite new dinners, and I will be incorporating it into the weekly menu from now on. I used tuna chunks (aka trimmings, fine by me, and WAY cheaper) and broiled them on a baking sheet after I realized at the last minute that lost my skewers in a recent move! The sauce was thick enough that most of it remained on the tuna through the marinating process. I added a little soy sauce and sambal oelek (chili paste), but regretted it because it masked the delicate flavor of the marinade. The veggies were delicious and perfectly textured, and my husband was in love with the peppers. This was so easy to make, really cheap - using tuna chunks (about $6 a pound, but usually available on first-come-first-serve basis), delicious, and very satisfying. I served this with brown rice and sauteed spinach with garlic & lemon juice. Wonderful meal!
     
  2. This is a great way to make fish! Swordfish works really well. I use a separate skewer for each ingredient and usually put the onions and peppers in first to cook as I like them to cook a little longer than the fish.
     
  3. Basted with butter while grilling, used a little lawry's seasoning salt, great for crappie.
     
  4. This was great and so simple - thanks!!
     
  5. Great recipe Tasty & Healthy. I used cod and omitted the tomatoes. I added tomato to my arugula salad. Grilled the skewers on my griddler. They were wonderful
