Method
Preparation
- Combine all the ingredients for the marinade; place the fish, shrimp and scallops into a deep dish and pour the marinade over top; marinate in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours.
-
Make the aioli: puré the sundried tomatoes and basil in a blender; blend into the aioli. Set aside in the refrigerator.
- For the vegetable salad: cut all the vegetables (except the tomatoes) lengthwise into halves or quarters depending on their size and drizzle them with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place the shrimp, scallops (halved if necessary) and cubes of swordfish onto skewers, alternating ingredients. Each kebab should weigh about 175 g (6 oz.).
Cooking
- Place the kebabs on the grill and cook for about 4 minutes on each side, depending on thickness.
- Place the vegetables on the grill, removing them when tender and nicely marked.
Finishing
- Let the vegetables cool and then cut them into pieces about 2.5 cm (1") long. Add the tomatoes in 1 cm dice, the garlic, cumin, balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Combine well.
- Just before serving, divide the grilled vegetable salad among plates; lay two kebabs, overlapping, on top of the salad.
- Pour a few drops of aioli over the kebabs and serve the rest on the side.
