PREPARATION

  • Prepare the marinade: In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice, fresh dill and olive oil to create a simple yet flavorful marinade.
  • Marinate the salmon: Place the cubed salmon into the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes to enhance the flavour.
  • Preheat the grill: Set your outdoor grill or indoor grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
  • Skewer the salmon: Thread the marinated salmon cubes onto a skewer, making sure they are evenly spaced to allow for even cooking.
  • Grill the skewers: Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until the salmon is cooked through and has slight grill marks.
  • Remove and serve: Once done, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a minute before serving. Enjoy them with your favourite side dishes.

TIPS

Here are some ingredients for Grilled Lemon Dill Salmon Skewers:

  • Use fresh salmon: Opt for fresh, high-quality salmon for the best texture and flavour.
  • Even-sized cubes: Cut the salmon into uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.
  • Soak wooden skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 15-20 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
  • Don’t overcook: Salmon cooks quickly, so keep an eye on it to avoid dryness. The flesh should flake easily when done.

VARIATIONS

  • Garlic Butter Version: Add ½ tsp melted butter and a pinch of minced garlic to the marinade for a richer flavour.
  • Spicy Kick: Sprinkle a pinch of red pepper flakes or cayenne for some heat.
  • Herb Substitutions: Swap dill for parsley, basil or chives for a different herbal twist.
  • Citrus Blend: Try a mix of lemon and lime juice for a more complex citrusy note.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Prepping Ahead: Marinate the salmon up to 1 hour in advance and store it in the fridge until ready to grill.
  • Refrigeration: Store cooked salmon skewers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • Freezing: Uncooked marinated salmon cubes can be frozen for up to 1 month. Thaw in the fridge before grilling.
