Baked Or Grilled Salmon Kabobs
Baked Or Grilled Salmon Kabobs
Ingredients
▢1 ½ pounds (675 g) salmon fillets skinless
▢1 large lemon
Marinade:
▢2 tablespoons (30 ml) extra virgin olive oil
▢2 tablespoons (30 ml) fresh lemon juice
▢3 cloves garlic minced
▢2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
▢1 teaspoon honey
▢1 tablespoon fresh chopped dill
▢1 teaspoon kosher salt
▢½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Soak your skewers in
water for about 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.
Cut the salmon fillets
into bite-sized 1-½ inch cubes, and slice the lemon thinly.
To make the marinade, in
a medium sized bowl whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, Dijon
mustard, honey, dill, salt, and pepper.
Add the salmon to the
marinade, and gently toss to make sure the fish is well coated in the marinade.
Let it marinate while you preheat the grill and soak the skewers.
Thread the marinated
salmon pieces alternating with lemon slices onto the soaked skewers. Use 6-8
pairs of parallel skewers to hold the salmon. Brush on any remaining marinade
(in the bowl) over the fish.
Grilling Instructions:
Preheat your grill to
high heat. Clean and then oil the grill grates twice (remember fish is delicate
and can stick to the grill).
Place the skewers on the
grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side carefully flipping halfway through.
The fish is ready when
it’s opaque throughout, the FDA recommends that salmon be cooked to a
temperature of 145°F/63°C, although many professional chefs prefer a bit less
than that, or 125°F/52°C and that’s what I aim for.
Oven Instructions:
Preheat the broiler and
place the salmon skewers on a quarter-sized sheet pan. Place the skewers about
5 inches away from the broiler and cook for 8 minutes, flipping halfway
through.
