Swordfish is a popular game fish found in tropical and temperate oceans worldwide. It is prized for its firm, meaty texture and mild, slightly sweet flavor that is often compared to tuna or shark. Swordfish kebabs are a delicious and healthy way to enjoy this versatile fish, with the lemon and paprika marinade bringing out its natural flavors and enhancing its tenderness and moisture. These kebabs are perfect for a summer BBQ or outdoor gathering, and can be served as a main course with a side of salad or grilled vegetables.

Instructions

1.	In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and paprika.
2.	Skewer the swordfish cubes, onion wedges, and tomato quarters onto metal or pre-soaked wooden skewers.
3.	Brush the kebabs with the olive oil mixture and season with salt and black pepper.
4.	Preheat a grill or grill pan to high heat, and cook the kebabs for 2-3 minutes per side or until the swordfish is cooked through.
5.	Serve hot with a side of lemon wedges.
