Follow @kalejunkie for easy recipes like these GRILLED LEMON SALMON SKEWERS 🍋 🐠 You will LOVE THEM and if you don’t have a grill, you can either bake or air fry them! But whatever you do, these are a must make, especially for the long weekend! Run, don’t walk :) The salmon bites are marinated in lemon juice and a delicious spice blend, then skewered with lemons and red onions for extra flavor. The salmon is perfectly grilled and will melt in your mouth. You can serve with a side of veggies or just enjoy as-is, off the skewer!⁣
⁣
Makes 8 servings (1 big skewer each)⁣
2 lbs salmon, skin removed and cut into large chunks (I ask the butcher to do this for me as a favor, thanks Randy!)⁣
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil⁣
1 lemon, zested and juiced⁣
⁣
Spice blend⁣
1 tb cumin⁣
2 tsp paprika⁣
1/s tsp chili powder⁣
1 tsp garlic powder⁣
1 tsp onion powder⁣
1 tsp kosher salt⁣
1/2 tsp ground black pepper⁣
⁣
2 red onions, cubed⁣
3 lemons, sliced 1/2 inch thick for the skewers⁣
⁣
Garnish:⁣
Chopped parsley⁣
Lemon wedges⁣
⁣
Add cubed salmon to a large bowl. In a small bowl, mix together the spice blend. Toss the salmon with olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, and the mixed spice blend. Make sure salmon is coated evenly. Cut red onion into cubes and the lemons into slices. Take soaked skewers and alternate the skewering - salmon, lemon slice, salmon, onion, salmon, lemon, salmon, red onion and so forth. Repeat with all the skewers. Heat grill to 425F. Once the grill is hot, you can either rub half of a cut potato along the grill grates or spray the grill with oil spray so the grill becomes non-stick — this is important since fish is delicate and you don’t want it to stick to the grill. If using wood skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 min before so they don’t burn. Add skewers to the hot grill and do not touch for 5 minutes, then GENTLY flip to the other side for another 5 minutes, then gently rotate again for another 4-5. Remove from grill, and serve with lemon wedges and chopped parsley for garnish. ⁣
