Thread the shrimp, fish, and vegetables onto the skewers, alternating as desired.

Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally until the shrimp are opaque and the fish is cooked through.

Remove the skewers from the grill and sprinkle with 1/4 cup of fresh parsley before serving.
