  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to fry fish kebab on a grill? Prepare the necessary products. I use halibut steaks - the fish is quite fatty and contains few bones. You can take any other fairly fatty fish with a small number of bones. All types of noble fish are perfect: salmon, trout, sturgeon. But mackerel is also great. It is best to take chilled fish - it is much healthier frozen and contains much less water.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Rinse the fish well and cut into medium-sized pieces. Do not chop so that the kebab is not dry.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Place the chopped fish in a marinating container. It is desirable that it has a lid. You can add a little salt. Lately I hardly salt my fish; lemon juice is enough for me. Well, it's a matter of taste!

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    We only need lemon juice, so you can also use factory-made lemon juice. If you squeeze juice from a lemon, then wash it well with very hot water first - this way the lemon will release much more juice. Pour lemon juice over the fish. It will remove excess fishy smell.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Pour in kefir. Kefir is an excellent marinade for all types of kebabs.

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    Peel the onion, cut into rings or half rings.

  7. STEP 7

    STEP 7

    Add onion to fish, mix everything well. Leave to marinate for any amount of time from 1 to 24 hours.

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    Before cooking, light a fire, wait until they burn out and there are hot coals. It is best to take birch firewood - it makes the kebab very flavorful. Or you can take ready-made factory-produced coals and simply heat them.

  9. STEP 9

    STEP 9

    Wash the skewers and heat them directly on the grill. Thread fish pieces onto skewers and place on the grill.

  10. STEP 10

    STEP 10

    Since the fish is quite fatty, when frying, droplets of fat can cause a fire if they come into contact with the coals. Therefore, make sure that there is no open flame and the kebab does not burn. Fry for about 5 minutes on each side, turning occasionally. The fish cooks quite quickly and the total cooking time will be about 25 minutes.

  11. STEP 11

    STEP 11

    Of course, the kebab should be served immediately while it is hot. Bon appetit!

I have only tried salmon shish kebab in a summer cafe; buying ready-made kebab is a bit expensive. We tried following this recipe to cook barbecue in nature ourselves, it turned out VERY TASTY and much cheaper. Thanks for the recipe.

A wonderful dish for a holiday dinner! Fish kebab on the grill is delicious! We prepare shish kebab mainly from meat, but we also love fish kebab. There is no need to marinate it overnight or for several hours; it is prepared right on the spot. Red fish is best suited for kebabs; it has a lot of fat and the kebabs will turn out juicy and flavorful. We made it from red fish; the best choice, of course, was salmon. Thanks for the recipe!
