GRILLED SALMON KABOBS



Grilled Salmon Kabobs image

These grilled salmon kabobs are soaked in in a unique marinade blend that's full of flavor and skewered with lemon. If you can't cook them on the grill, they can also be baked in the oven. Either way, you'll get delicious, perfectly seasoned salmon that pairs perfectly with your favorite sides.

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 - 2 pounds salmon, cubed
2 lemons, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon Dijon
2 teaspoons sesame seeds
2 teaspoon capers
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Add the marinade ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Whisk to combine.
  • Place the cubed salmon into the marinade and cover the bowl. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the salmon to marinate. While the salmon marinates, soak the wooden skewers.

  • Preheat grill to high heat, and add a grill grate or piece of heavy duty aluminum foil.
  • Grill salmon for 10 minutes, turning once to evenly brown both sides.

Time 18m

Number Of Ingredients 12

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)

SAFFRON SALMON KABABS



Saffron Salmon Kababs image

Buttery, saffron-stained and gently spiced, these Iranian kababs come together in no time and make for a beautiful, flavorful meal. The warming spice mix of oregano, coriander, black pepper and turmeric balances and lifts the sweet notes from the saffron and salmon. To keep the fish in place when turning the kababs on the grill, use 1/2-inch-wide flat skewers or two thin, round skewers. You can entertain with these skewers or enjoy them on a quiet weeknight, along with dill rice and a side of fresh herbs, or cucumber, tomato and onion salad.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

About 1 1/2 teaspoons saffron threads (0.35 grams)
Pinch of granulated sugar
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice, plus lime wedges for serving
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 large garlic cloves, finely grated
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed between your fingers
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 1/2 pounds skinless salmon (preferably center-cut), cut into 1-inch pieces
Fresh herbs, such as mint, cilantro and basil, for serving

Steps:

  • Using a mortar and pestle or small bowl and the handle end of a wooden spoon, grind the saffron with a pinch of sugar to a fine powder (about 1/4 teaspoon). Transfer to a large bowl. Bring 2 tablespoons water to a boil in a saucepan, kettle or using the microwave, then let stand for 2 minutes to allow the water temperature to drop slightly. Add to the ground saffron powder, gently stir, cover and steep for 5 minutes.
  • To the saffron water, add the lime juice, olive oil, garlic, salt, oregano, coriander, pepper and turmeric. Stir to mix, add the salmon pieces and combine until the salmon is well coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • As the salmon marinates, prepare a charcoal grill until the coals are ashed over and slightly cooled to medium-hot and or heat a gas grill to medium-high. Skewer the salmon and save any remaining marinade. Grill the skewers, brushing with the remaining marinade and turning every couple of minutes, until tender and buttery, about 10 minutes total. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over the fish. Enjoy, with bites of fresh herbs between bites of salmon.
