Seafood Souvlaki
Execution Process:
Place the sweet potatoes on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and sprinkle them with balsamic glaze, olive oil, oregano, and salt. Mix well and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 25 minutes until cooked.
Meanwhile, cut the fish fillets, except the shrimp, into approximately 3×3 cm pieces, ensuring they are all the same size for even cooking. In a bowl, combine the fish fillets and shrimp and marinate with olive oil, lemon zest, oregano, paprika, and salt; mix well. Thread a piece of each type of fish onto skewers, starting with salmon, followed by swordfish, cod, and ending with a shrimp.
Place on a tray and bake with the sweet potatoes for 12 minutes in the oven.
For the spread, blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth. If necessary, add a little water.
Warm the pitas shortly before the skewers are done (about 2 minutes), spread the chickpea mixture in the middle with a spoon, then layer on the lettuce, tomatoes, and cilantro. Finally, place two skewers on top and serve with the sweet potatoes.
