1.5 lb Salmon fillet, cut into cubes approximately 1-inch to 1-1/2 inch or so in size
1 zucchini, sliced into rounds
1 small red onion, cut into squares
Kosher salt and pepper
1/4 cup to 1/3 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil (I used Early Harvest Greek olive oil)
1 lemon, zested and juiced
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp chopped fresh thyme leaves
2 tsp dry oregano
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp mild chili pepper (I used this Aleppo pepper )
1/2 tsp ground coriander

Steps:

In a small bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients of extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice and zest, garlic, oregano, thyme, cumin, Aleppo pepper and coriander.
Place salmon pieces, zucchini and onions in a large mixing bowl. Season with kosher salt and pepper, and toss briefly. Now pour the marinade over the salmon and toss again to make sure the salmon is well coated with the marinade. Let the fish marinate for about 15 to 20 minutes (see Cook's Tip)
Beginning with salmon, thread salmon, zucchini and onions through skewers (if using wooden skewers, be sure to have soaked them for 30 minutes before using.)
Heat an outdoor grill (indoor grilling instructions in notes). Arrange salmon skewers on top and cover the grill. Grill salmon kabobs for 6 to 8 minute, covered, or until the fish is opaque throughout, turning once midway through cooking (using tongs is the best way to turn the salmon skewers)
