Here we’ve got the perfect solution for a summer dinner that’s full of our favorite summer flavors without all the hassle and clean up. These skewers are quick and easy to assemble, and the sauce is one that’s a necessity to try! You’ve never tasted salmon like this!
Ingredients:
- 1.31 lbs. Fresh Salmon
- ½ White Onion
- 1 Yellow Bell Pepper
- 1 Green Bell Pepper
- 1 Red Bell Pepper
- 1 pkg Fresh Basil
- 1 Shallot sliced thin
- 3 Lemons sliced
- 2 Tbsp. SPG Kosmos Dry Rub
- 3 Tbsp. Okie Honey
- 5 Tbsp. Butter Sliced
- 2 Tbsp. Olive Oil
Equipment Used:
- Propane Grill
- Thermoworks Timestick Trio
- Thermoworks Thermapen One
- 4 Bamboo Skewers
Cook Time: 8-10 Minutes
Prep Time: 30 Minutes
Temp: 250 degrees F.
Directions:
- Prep Ingredients- Start by washing all your vegetables off under cold water.
- Remove the skin from the salmon- Using a sharp knife cut the skin off the salmon.
Tip: If you can buy the salmon with the skin removed, I would do that.
- Cut the following into small bite chunks that will fit on your skewer. Cut the bell peppers, fresh basil, shallot, lemons, onion.
- Season the meat- In a small bowl add the salmon cubes, olive oil, and Kozmos SPG dry rub.
- Build the Skewers- Add the following onto the skewer in this order, onion, salmon, bell pepper, basil leaf. Repeat this order until the skewer is full and set aside for the grill.
- Place the kabobs on the grill on medium/high heat and place the sliced lemons on top of the kabobs.
- Making the sauce- place 5 tbsp. butter in a cast iron sauce pan when you start cooking the kabobs. Once the butter is melted add the honey and chopped shallots to the saucepan. Mix and set aside.
- Cook the kabobs for about 2-4 minutes rotating them every 60 seconds. After 4 minutes place the kabobs into a cast iron skillet to finish cooking on the grill. Using a skillet will allow the kabobs to cook in the sauce without a lot of flare up from the flames.
- Time to Sauce it up- With the kabobs in the cast iron skillet pour the sauce all over the kabobs.
- Once the salmon on the kabobs have reached an internal temperature of 145 degrees F, remove them, and enjoy!
