Ingredients

• 1 pound firm white fish (e.g., halibut, cod, or mahi-mahi)
• 1 large red bell pepper
• 1 large yellow bell pepper
• 1 medium red onion
• 1 medium zucchini
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 8 pieces wooden skewers (soaked in water for 30 minutes)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the fish into 1-inch cubes and set aside.

Step 2

Chop the red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, red onion, and zucchini into similarly sized 1-inch pieces.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 4

Place the cubed fish and chopped vegetables in a large bowl. Pour the marinade over them and gently toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 5

Preheat the grill or a grill pan to medium heat.

Step 6

Thread the marinated fish and vegetables onto the wooden skewers, alternating pieces for a colorful presentation.

Step 7

Grill the kabobs for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the fish is opaque and the vegetables are slightly charred and tender.

Step 8

Serve immediately with a side of fresh lemon wedges, if desired, for an extra zesty touch.
