GRILLED SEA BASS FILLETS WITH OKRA KEBABS

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine onion, garlic, spice blend, cilantro, green mango pickles, oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Blend until smooth; set marinade aside.
• Use a sharp knife to cut 3 slits, about 1/2 inch deep, through the skin of each fish fillet.
• Place fillets in a shallow dish and coat them completely with marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat a nonstick grill pan over medium-high. Grill fish, skin-side down, until lightly charred, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn fish and continue grilling until fish is cooked through, about 3 minutes more. Serve with okra kebabs and garnish with lemon wedges and cilantro sprigs.

STEAK, TOMATO, AND OKRA KEBABS

Steps:

• Marinate steak:
• Whisk together shallot, vinegar, mustard, sugar, 1 tsp salt, and 3/4 tsp pepper. Add 1/2 cup oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified.
• Toss steak with 1/2 tsp salt, then marinate in a sealed bag with 6 Tbsp vinaigrette, chilled, turning bag occasionally, at least 2 hours. Chill remaining vinaigrette.
• Make kebabs:
• Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium-high heat for gas).
• Meanwhile, toss tomatoes and okra with remaining 3 Tbsp oil and 1/4 tsp salt. Thread tomatoes onto 3 or 4 skewers. Thread okra crosswise onto pairs of parallel skewers, leaving small spaces between pieces. Put on a tray.
• Thread steak onto remaining skewers, leaving small spaces between pieces (discard marinade). Put on another tray.
• Oil grill rack, then grill steak skewers, covered only if using a gas grill, turning once, about 5 minutes total for medium-rare (about 8 minutes if using steak tips). Transfer to a platter. Drizzle with some of remaining vinaigrette while hot and let stand 5 minutes.
• Grill tomato and okra skewers, covered only if using a gas grill, turning occasionally, until tomatoes just begin to wilt and okra is tender, 8 to 10 minutes total. Transfer to platter with steak and serve with any remaining reserved vinaigrette.
