1. | Cut fish into approximately 16 chunks. Build skewers by starting with bell pepper, then pineapple, zucchini, fish, and onion. Repeat the process on the same skewer. This can be a fun activity for older children to help out with! Complete the skewers utilizing all of the ingredients. |
2. | Brush grill (or indoor grill plate) with a light coat of oil - or spray with nonstick cooking spray. Heat grill to medium-high. Add skewers, cooking on one side for about 3 minutes. Flip skewers, and brush several times with teriyaki glaze, cooking 3 more minutes. Drizzle teriyaki glaze over each. Remove. |
3. | Drizzle olive oil into rice, and toss with lime zest and chopped cilantro. Season to taste with sea salt. |
4. | Serve Fish Skewers over Cilantro Lime Rice. Enjoy! |
