1-2 hrs

ingredients

1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
8 fresh bay leaves
4 slices lemon (1/4-inch thick), halved
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 pound swordfish steaks (1.5 inch squares)
4 large cherry tomatoes
4 squares green bell pepper (1-inch)
non-stick cooking spray

directions

Combine first 6 ingredients in a large zip-top heavy-duty plastic bag. Add swordfish, seal bag, and marinate in refrigerator for 1 hour, turning bag occasionally.

Remove swordfish from bag, reserving marinade. Thread 5 swordfish cubes, 1 bay leaf, 1 lemon slice, 1 cherry tomato, and 1 bell pepper square alternately onto each of 12-inch skewers. Reserve 1/4 cup marinade. Discard remaining bay leaves and lemon slices.

Place kabobs on a broiler rack coated with cooking spray. Place rack on a broiler pan. Broil 5-1/2 inches from heat for 3 minutes.

Turn kabobs over and broil for 3 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, basting occasionally with reserved 1/4 cup marinade.
