Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels.
Cut into 1-inch cubes.
Add fish to marinade; toss gently to coat.
Cover and marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Drain fish, discarding the marinade.
In a large bowl combine the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the lemon-pepper seasoning.
Add mushrooms, squash, and sweet pepper; toss to coat.
Alternately thread fish, mushrooms, squash, and sweet pepper onto eight 12-inch skewers, leaving 1/4 inch between pieces.
Coat the unheated rack of a broiler pan with cooking spray.
Place fish skewers on the prepared rack.
Broil about 4 inches from the heat for 8 to 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, turning once.
Place a cherry tomato on the end of each skewer the last 2 minutes of broiling.
If desired, serve the kabobs with hot cooked rice.

Grill for 8 to 12 minutes or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, turning once.
