Ingredients

  • 1 lb Marlin fillet
  • 1 whole Fresh pineapple
  • 1 Red bell pepper
  • 1 Red onion
  • 3 tbsp Olive oil
  • 3 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • 2 tbsp Lime juice
  • 2 cloves Minced garlic
  • 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
  • 0.5 tsp Salt
  • 10 Wooden or metal skewers

Directions

Step 1

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning. If using metal skewers, set them aside.

Step 2

Cut the marlin fillet into 1-inch cubes and set aside.

Step 3

Peel and core the fresh pineapple, then cut it into 1-inch chunks.

Step 4

Cut the red bell pepper and red onion into bite-sized pieces similar in size to the marlin and pineapple chunks.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, honey, lime juice, minced garlic, ground black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.

Step 6

Add the marlin cubes to the marinade and coat them thoroughly. Let the marlin marinate in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.

Step 7

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 8

Assemble the kabobs by threading marlin, pineapple, red bell pepper, and red onion onto the skewers, alternating the ingredients for a colorful presentation.

Step 9

Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking, then place the kabobs on the grill.

Step 10

Cook the kabobs for about 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until the marlin is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the vegetables have a slight char.

Step 11

Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for 2 minutes before serving.

Step 12

Serve the Marlin Pineapple Kabobs warm, optionally garnished with fresh lime wedges for an extra burst of flavor.
