BBQ Swordfish, Sweet Potato and Veggie Kebabs

by Chris on December 4, 2008

Swordfish Steaks

  • Rinse the swordfish steaks in cool water and then lightly sprinkle with salt-free lemon pepper on one side.
  • Lightly oil the grill and place the steak, pepper side down on the grill for 5-6 minutes.
  • Leave the steaks to cook…the less they are touched the less they will fall apart.
  • Sprinkle some lemon pepper on the top side, flip and grill for another 5 minutes or until the fish flakes with a fork.

Tip: To see if they are cooked, insert the point of a sharp knife and twist.  This allows you to see inside without breaking apart the fillet.

Rosemary-rubbed sweet potatoes

  • Wash the sweet potatoes and cut into wedges
  • Bake in an oven for 15 minutes at 200 C, skin side down on a rack
  • Remove and store in a fridge uncovered until cool

Time to BBQ!!!

  • Brush a little olive oil onto each sweet potato
  • Pull apart some fresh rosemary and rub it into the potatoes, leaving some on the potato
  • Add some ground pepper and place  on the grill for 15 minutes
  • Flip and continue to cook for another 10 minutes or until tender

Tip: Sprinkle on more rosemary during grilling….it smells great!

Veggie Kebabs

  • Wash some zucchini (courgette), squash, cherry tomatoes, capsicum, small mushrooms and slices of onion.
  • Cut everything but the tomatoes and mushrooms into chunks, then place the vegetables on a skewer.
  • Lightly brush with olive oil and place on the grill
  • Keep rotating every 3-4 minutes while lightly seasoning with pepper, until slightly charred and tender.

Tip: Wooden skewers are best to use, to avoid vegetables slipping off.
