Laura Schara's Favorite Pan Fish Kabobs Over the Campfire

Ingredients:

1 to 2 lbs of filet Pan fish or Walleye

1 Green Pepper

1 small tray of Cherry Tomatoes

Sweet & Hot Chili Seasoning (Or just use your favorite seasoning: Cajun, Lemon Pepper, etc. Italian Seasoning with sea salt is also tasty, too)

Olive Oil

Tinfoil

Wood Kabob sticks that have been soaked in water for 24 hours beforehand

Preparation:

  1. Cover campfire grate with tinfoil

  2. Light campfire coals or campfire wood - let it burn down so it’s hot with no flame or the coals are white

  3. Cut fish filet into large “chunks” (Large cuts prevent the fish from falling off the kabob when cooking) - place cut fish in mixing bowl or larger freezer bag

  4. Cut green pepper into large chunks - place in bowl or bag with fish

  5. Place a few handfuls of cherry tomatoes into bowl or bag with fish and green pepper

  6. Drizzle two to three tablespoons of olive oil into the bowl or bag

  7. Add your level of preferred spice (Approximately one tablespoon) to the bowl or bag

  8. Mix the ingredients gently together so all the fish and veggies are covered in oil and spice

  9. Assemble the kabobs onto the bamboo sticks. Make sure a green pepper is on the bottom and top of kabob to keep them in place while cooking

  10. Drizzle olive oil onto the hot tinfoil to prevent the fish from sticking to it. Let the olive oil heat up

  11. Place kabobs on the hot tinfoil

  12. Let cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side depending on how your coals or wood is. Turn once or twice but don’t mess with the kabobs too much as they will fall apart

  13. Once fish is white and cooked you may serve, eat and enjoy!
