Description

These take less than 30 minutes to make and you end up with such juicy, flaky and flavorful salmon… you’ll want seconds!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs salmon fillets (cut into 1-inch squares)
  • 2 large lemons thinly sliced
  • 16 10-inch bamboo skewers
  • 2 Tbsp parsley (freshly chopped)
  • 2 large or 3 small garlic cloves (pressed)
  • 1/2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp ground black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp light olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Prep: Soak bamboo skewers at least 1 hour to keep them from catching fire. Preheat Grill to medium heat (about 375ËšF).
  2. Marinade: In a medium bowl, stir together all of the marinade ingredients: 2 Tbsp chopped parsley, 2 pressed garlic cloves, 1/2 Tbsp dijon, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp pepper, 2 Tbsp olive oil, 2 Tbsp lemon juice.
  3. Assemble: Double skewer the salmon and lemon slices folded in half intermittently onto two skewers at a time. Brush both sides of skewered salmon with marinade.
  4. Grill: Oil the grates then carefully place salmon skewers onto the hot BBQ. Grill kebobs for 3-4 minutes per side or until salmon is cooked through and opaque.

Notes

The double skewer aids in turning the salmon kebobs on the grill.
