Pesto Halibut Kebabs
If you can't find fresh halibut, substitute another mild, firm white fish. Serve this dish with Israeli couscous tossed with toasted sliced almonds, dried cranberries, and chopped fresh parsley.

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds halibut, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 large red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch chunks
3 tablespoons prepared basil pesto
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
Cooking spray

Preparation Preheat broiler.

Place fish and bell pepper in a shallow dish. Drizzle pesto and vinegar over fish mixture; toss to coat. Let fish mixture stand 5 minutes.

Thread fish and pepper alternately onto each of 4 (12-inch) skewers; sprinkle evenly with salt. Place skewers on a jelly-roll pan coated with cooking spray. Broil for 8 minutes or until desired degree of doneness, turning once.

Yield

4 servings (serving size: 1 skewer and 1 lemon wedge)

This was one of the easiest and yummiest recipes ever! We marinated the Halibut for about 45 minutes in the pesto sauce before throwing them on the grill. YUMMY!

I highly recomend this one for even you non fish eaters.

Melts in your mouth! =)
