Halibut Kebabs With Grilled Bread and Pancetta
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 tablespoon coarsely chopped rosemary leaves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 1/2 pounds halibut fillet, skinned, cut into 2-inch chunks
- 4 cups crusty bread, such as ciabatta, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
- 3 ounces paper-thin pancetta
- In large bowl, combine oil, rosemary, salt and pepper.
- Add halibut and bread and toss to coat; set aside 5 minutes.
- Weave pancetta around fish and bread: Skewer end of a pancetta strip, then put the skewer into fish cube.
- Lay pancetta strip over opposite side of cube and skewer again.
- Put a bread cube on the skewer, then lay the pancetta over bread the same way, so strip weaves between cubes.
- Repeat twice with that skewer; repeat with remaining skewers.
- Heat a broiler, place kebabs 4 to 6 inches below.
- Broil 3 minutes per side.
- Or, prepare a medium fire on a grill.
- Grill kebabs, turning often, until fish is cooked and bread is browned, 6 minutes.
