Seafood Shish

By Master Chef on October 14th, 2011 · In Marinades, Sauces and Gravies, Seafood

This exceptional shish kebab uses firm fish or squid rather than lamb or beef. Fish require far less cooking time, so take care not to overcook. With a squeeze of fresh lemon, this recipe is simply great.
