CHICKEN OR SWORDFISH KEBABS
I can't think of a better destination for chicken tenders than these succulent grilled kebabs. The yogurt marinade works equally well with chicken or with swordfish. The results are unbelievably tender and juicy (as long as you don't overcook them). Serve the kebabs with basmati rice.

Steps:
- Season the chicken or swordfish with salt and pepper. Mash the garlic to a paste with 1/4 teaspoon salt in a mortar and pestle. Place the yogurt in a 2-quart bowl and stir in the mashed garlic, another 1/4 teaspoon salt, the curry powder, cardamom, and canola oil. Add the chicken or fish, the tomatoes and the peppers, and toss together. Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 3 hours. Meanwhile, if using wooden skewers, soak for 30 minutes or longer.
- To make the sauce, in a mortar and pestle mash the garlic and salt together to a paste. Stir into the drained yogurt, along with the optional cumin seeds and the mint or dill. Set aside.
- Prepare a hot charcoal grill or preheat a gas grill for fifteen minutes. Thread the chicken or fish onto skewers, alternating with the peppers and tomatoes. Do not jam the pieces together tightly, but leave a little space between so that the pieces cook evenly. Place on the hot grill. Grill 5 minutes and turn over. Grill fish skewers for another 5 minutes, or until the fish is springy to the touch. Grill chicken for another 7 to 10 minutes, turning onto another side after 5 minutes, or until cooked through but not dry. Remove from the grill and serve, with the yogurt sauce and with basmati rice.

Steps:
- Whisk first 6 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Add fish and refrigerate at least 1 and up to 4 hours.
- Preheat barbecue (medium heat) or preheat broiler. Drain fish, reserving marinade. Thread fish on skewers alternately with onions, green and bell peppers and mushrooms. Arrange skewers on grill. Grill until swordfish is just cooked through, brushing skewers frequently with marinade, about 5 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose the right swordfish: Look for firm, opaque flesh that is light pink in color. Avoid any fish that has a slimy or off odor.
- Use a flavorful marinade: The yogurt marinade in this recipe helps to tenderize the swordfish and infuses it with flavor. You can also use other marinades, such as a citrus-based marinade or a herb-infused marinade.
- Cook the swordfish over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the fish while keeping the inside moist and flaky.
- Serve the swordfish with your favorite sides: Some popular sides for swordfish include grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a simple salad.
Conclusion:
Yogurt-marinated swordfish kebabs are a delicious and healthy way to enjoy this versatile fish. The marinade helps to tenderize the swordfish and infuses it with flavor, while the grilling process creates a nice sear on the outside and keeps the inside moist and flaky. Serve the kebabs with your favorite sides for a complete meal.
