Fish skewers - Fiskspett Special

FISH SKEWERS
Fiskspett Special

The slightly unusual combo of honey, soy sauce and lemon gives these fish skewers a delicious taste. Don’t grill them for too long, or they might turn dry and disagreeable.

4 servings

14 oz to 1 lb fillet of salmon, halibut or other firm fish

4 slices bacon
1 green bell pepper
8 mushrooms
8 cherry tomatoes

Honey sauce:

1/3 cup honey
4 tablespoons butter or margarine
2 tablespoons Chinese soy sauce
1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
white pepper

Cut the fish in cubes, about 2 ¼ inches. Cut each slice of bacon in 4 pieces. Cut the sweet pepper in pieces and the mushrooms in thick slices.

Mix the ingredients for the sauce in a small saucepan. Heat while stirring on medium heat for about 3 minutes. Alternate fish, bacon, sweet pepper, mushrooms and tomatoes on skewers. Put them in a dish, pour the honey sauce over them and leave for about 30 minutes. Turn the skewers after half the time.

Grill the skewers rather high up in the oven for 3 to 5 minutes. Turn them and brush with the sauce, then grill for another 5 minutes or so until done.

Serve and enjoy, perhaps with rice mixed with green peas and dill, a salad and warm bread.
