Swordfish's firm white flesh is perfect for grilling on skewers, and shiitake mushrooms add a captivating flavor. Thread the fish pieces onto skewers, alternating with red onion slices and mushrooms, and grill. A few minutes before they're ready, brush the kebabs with a mixture of olive oil, spices, and chopped aromatic herbs (parsley, cilantro, and green onions). Reserve some of this mixture for serving. A delicious and lighter alternative to meat kebabs.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat the grill to medium heat and brush the grates with vegetable oil. Combine 1/2 cup olive oil, parsley, cilantro, green onions, vinegar, and garlic in a blender and blend until smooth. Add red pepper flakes and salt to taste. Pour half the mixture into a bowl and set aside for serving.
  2. In a bowl, combine the swordfish with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, cumin, and coriander; season with salt. Thread the fish, mushrooms, and red onion onto eight 25cm skewers.

  3. Grill until grill marks appear, about 2 minutes per side, then continue grilling, turning and brushing with the remaining herb oil, until the fish is cooked through, another 5-6 minutes. Drizzle the reserved herb oil over the kebabs.
