👨‍🍳 Method

1
In a bowl, mix the olive oil, lemon juice, salt and black pepper for the marinade.
Bowl
2
Add the fish cubes to the marinade, mix gently, cover and marinate in the fridge 30 minutes.
Refrigerator
💡The lemon in the marinade starts to "cook" the fish: marinate half an hour to an hour, no longer, or the cubes soften and fall apart on the skewer.
3
Thread the fish cubes onto the skewers.

Grill the skewers 3 minutes per side, turning gently once.

💡Large, even cubes stay juicy and don't fall off the skewer; turn only once the underside has browned and releases from the grate.
