KEBABS!
May is National Grilling Month! Now there is nothing better than steaks, or hamburgers and dogs on the grill. But sometimes you can get a little tired of meat on the grill. What’s so good about grilling is that you can cook far more than just meat – veggies and fish taste great over an open flame too! The easiest way to do this is on kebabs – use a good meaty fish and they hold up wonderfully.
Here are some quick as a flash ideas for great kebab grilling!
• Use rosemary stalks as skewers – it adds great flavor and looks very impressive! And remember – always soak your skewers first.
• Marinate! And get creative – Italian dressing will always do the trick, but just check out his yogurt marinade from Jamie Oliver http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/fish-recipes/the-best-marinated-fish-kebabs
• Try some different fish – Cod, halibut and haddock are always good, but so is swordfish and monkfish!
• Go with the whole from the sea idea. Fish, and scallops and shrimp all taste great grilled. Look at what Emeril made! http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/emeril-lagasse/teriyaki-glazed-seafood-kebabs-recipe/index.html
So be adventurous and have fun breaking out of the meat on the grill rut!
