Spiced Salmon Kebabs

By nnlester

Here's a little trick: Thread salmon pieces onto two skewers so they don't flip and spin every time you turn them on the grill.

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
• 2 teaspoons sesame seeds
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 1/2 pounds skinless salmon fillet (preferably wild), cut into 1" pieces
• 2 lemons, very thinly sliced into rounds
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 16 bamboo skewers soaked in water 1 hour

Preparation

Step 1

Prepare grill for medium heat. Mix oregano, sesame seeds, cumin, salt, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl to combine; set spice mixture aside.

Beginning and ending with salmon, thread salmon and folded lemon slices onto 8 pairs of parallel skewers to make 8 kebabs total. Brush with oil and season with reserved spice mixture.

Grill, turning occasionally, until fish is opaque throughout, 5-8 minutes.
