Pesto Fish Kebabs

I made these as part of a seafood platter I did, I will be listing some of the other recipes I served with these over the next few days. I am going to have to guess on the amounts of as I only made 2 skewers to go with our other dishes. I think the amount listed should be about right for 4 people you can adjust pesto for your personal taste, we love pesto and I probably used a tablespoon per skewer that I made. Serve these with your favourite vegetable or a nice green salad. I have included a photo bellow of our platter tray, I had to serve these on a separate plate as they just would not fit.

Ingredients

1kg White fish fillets (cod, halibut, snapper etc.. I also used a small salmon fillet as well, just use your favourite.)
3 Tablespoons bottled pesto
1 Tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped

That’s it easy recipe hey!! I probably used more pesto than stated I love the stuff, but as I said earlier use more or less just make to suit personal taste.

Method

1. Soak 8 Bamboo skewers in water for at least an hour before using, this avoids scorching or splintering. (you will need 12 if using smaller ones)

2. Cut fish into 2cm cubes (approx); combine pesto fish and parsley in a bowl.

3. Thread fish onto skewers, cook in a pan or grill or BBQ until fish is browned and cooked as desired.

Serves 4
