Swordfish Souvlaki (Lemon and Garlic Swordfish Skewers)

I served it with some grilled skewered cherry tomatoes I had in the fridge and some wild rice.

Ingredients

    • 1 pound swordfish cut into 1 inch cubes
    • Juice of two lemons , divided
    • 2 teaspoons oregano
    • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
    • Salt
    • 3 garlic cloves, minced
    • 1 pint cherry tomatoes

Directions

  1. Heat the grill.
  2. Toss swordfish with juice of one lemon, oregano and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Let sit for 20 minutes.
  3. Skewer on to skewers (if wooden, soak for at least an hour before). Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Skewer tomatoes onto skewers
  5. Grill tomatoes and swordfish until charred and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. While the fish and tomatoes are grilling, make the sauce. Heat the olive oil over a medium heat, add garlic. Cook until fragrant and soft, about two minutes. Remove from heat and add lemon. Season with salt and pepper.
  7. Once fish is done cooking, drizzle with lemon and garlic.
  8. Serve with rice, pita bread and tzaziki sauce.
