Print Recipe
Servings 4 people

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup dry white wine or use unsweetened apple juice
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons chopped onion
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 1/2 pounds halibut fillets cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 medium red onion cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 medium Golden Delicious apples cored and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 medium red bell peppers de-seeded, de-ribbed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 8 metal OR bamboo skewers

Instructions
 

  • DO-AHEAD TIP: Marinate halibut and fruit and vegetables for 4 to 6 hours (see recipe). If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before use, to prevent burning.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the first 7 ingredients (wine/juice through black pepper); blend well then pour half of the mixture into a large zipper-topped plastic bag; add halibut, seal bag and turn to coat.
  • Pour remaining marinade into another large zipper-topped plastic bag; add red onion, apple and bell pepper pieces, seal bag and turn to coat.
  • Refrigerate both bags for 4 to 6 hours, turning occasionally.
  • Preheat oven broiler. Drain fish, discarding marinade. Drain fruit and vegetables, reserving marinade for basting.
  • Alternately thread fish, onion, apple and bell pepper onto skewers; broil 4 to 6 inches from heat source for 2 to 3 minutes per side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork and fruit and vegetables are tender.
  • Baste frequently with reserved marinade.
