Miguel Maestre's Nicoise Swordfish Skewers

Category: food

Swordfish, a sweet and succulent fish, goes perfectly with salsa verde. Combine it with cherry tomatoes, zucchini, olives and chat potatoes – and you have yourself a tasty entertaining delight.

Method

1. Firstly, thread ingredients tightly together onto 12 skewers. Drizzle with olive oil and season lightly with sea salt.

2. Meanwhile, blend salsa verde ingredients together, adding enough oil to form a pesto consistency.

3. Transfer skewers to a hot grill or barbecue and sear both sides for 1- 2 minutes, or to your liking. Arrange skewers onto your serving platter, coat generously with salsa verde and serve immediately.
