Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, black pepper and salt in a large bowl. Add the swordfish cubes and the halved bay leaves, toss, and marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cut the onion into 8 wedges and separate the layers; cut the peppers into 3 cm pieces and each tomato into 8 wedges.

  3. 3

    Thread the fish onto 8 skewers, alternating with the vegetables and bay leaves. Soak wooden skewers in water for 20 minutes beforehand.

  4. 4

    Heat a grill or cast-iron grill pan over high heat for 3-4 minutes until very hot.

  5. 5

    Grill the skewers for 10-12 minutes, turning every 3 minutes and brushing with the leftover marinade, until the fish is opaque and lightly browned at the edges.

  6. 6

    Transfer to a plate, rest for 2 minutes and serve hot.
