Tips:
- Choose a firm white fish like cod, haddock, or halibut for the best results.
- Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning on the grill.
- Marinate the fish in lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil for at least 30 minutes to enhance the flavor.
- Use a cooking spray oil to lightly coat the grill or pan to prevent the skewers from sticking.
- Keep an eye on the cherry tomatoes as they can burst if overcooked; they should be slightly charred and soft.
- Serve the skewers over a bed of couscous cooked with butter and fresh parsley to absorb all the delicious juices.
