Ingredients

• Fresh Fish (sliced or whole) - 500g
• Greek yogurt - 1/2 cup
• Here's a list of common ingredients used in grilled fish with veggies:
• Lemon juice - 2 tablespoons
• Ginger-garlic paste - 1 tablespoon
• Tikka masala spice mix - 2 tablespoons
• Turmeric powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - to taste
• Bell peppers (mixed colors) - 2
• Cucumber - 1 medium
• Onion - 1 large
• Tomatoes - 1 cup
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Fresh coriander  - for garnish

Method of Preparation

Step 1- Let's marinate that fish. Mix the curd, lemon juice, ginger-garlic paste, and all those lovely spices in a bowl. Slather it all over the fish chunks and put them in the fridge for about an hour.

Step 2- While that's happening, let's prep our veggies. Chop up those bell peppers, zucchini, and onion into nice chunky pieces. We want them to hold up on the grill, you know?

Step 3- Now, fire up that grill! Medium-high heat is what we're after.

Step 4- Thread your marinated fish onto skewers. If you're using wooden ones, remember to soak them first.

Step 5- Mix your veggies with a bit of oil and a pinch of salt. We're not drowning them, just giving them a light coat.

Step 6- Grill time! Pop those fish pieces on the grill. They'll need about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally. You want them nicely charred and cooked through.

Step 7- While the fish is doing its thing, throw your veggies on the grill, too. They'll need about 5-7 minutes to get all nice and charred.

Step 8- Once everything looks good, remove it all from the grill. Arrange the fish and veggies on a platter, sprinkle some fresh coriander on top, and voila!

There you have it! A super tasty, healthy meal that's perfect for your weight loss journey. Enjoy!
