Eat Wisconsin Fish / Fishes on Sticks (a.k.a. Fish Kabobs)

Ingredients

  • 2 fillets, rainbow trout
  • 2 fillets, catfish
  • 1 lb., whole shrimp
  • 12 cherry tomatoes
  • 1 yellow pepper
  • 1 orange pepper
  • 1 zucchini
  • 1 red onion

  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

 

  • Marinades or sauces of your choice

 

Method

  • Cut the fillets into about 1.5-inch chunks.
  • Behead and devein the shrimp (leave the shells on to maximize flavors).
  • Marinate the fish and shrimp separately in the marinade(s) of your choice for 30 minutes. Do this in the refrigerator with a cover over the bowls.
  • Soak wooden skewers in water while the fish and shrimp are marinating (about 20-30 minutes).
  • Preheat the grill! A hot grill creates the best fish~~
  • Cut up the vegetables.
  • Create the kabob by loading combination of fish, shrimp and vegetables on the skewers.
  • Generously grease the grill with olive oil.
  • Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side (Pro tip: the less you turn them, the less they will stick to the grill).

 

Reminder: Take the shells off of the shrimp before eating.
