BBQ Salmon and Fruit Skewers image

I made up this recipe with some summer fruit that I had on hand. I wanted something to go with some nice fresh salmon that I was planning to cook on the grill for dinner! It turned out great.

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 wooden skewers
1 (1 pound) fillet salmon
ΒΌ cup barbecue sauce, or as needed
1 mango - peeled, seeded, and cut into chunks
1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 fresh peach, pitted and cut into chunks
2 thick slices fresh pineapple, cut into chunks
3 tablespoons barbecue sauce
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon lime juice
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon honey

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Place the skewers into a basin of water and allow to soak while you prepare ingredients.
  • Slather the salmon on both sides with 1/4 cup of barbecue sauce, and set aside.
  • Place mango, red bell pepper, peach, and pineapple chunks into a bowl. In a small bowl, stir 3 tablespoons of barbecue sauce with water, lime juice, olive oil, and honey until well mixed; pour the dressing over the fruit and pepper chunks, and toss to coat.
  • Thread skewers with alternating pieces of mango, red bell pepper, peach, and pineapple chunks.
  • Grill the skewers on the preheated grill, turning every few minutes, until each side of the skewered fruit is browned, about 10 minutes. Move the fruit skewers to a cool part of the grill, and place the salmon fillet onto the hot grill surface, skin side down. Grill the fish until it shows brown grill marks, the fish is opaque, and the flesh flakes easily, 6 to 8 minutes per side. Serve grilled salmon with fruit skewers.

I'm not a big fan of fruit on my skewers, but I'm willing to give these a try.

These skewers are a great idea, but I think I'll try them with a different type of fish next time. I wasn't a big fan of the salmon.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my skewers didn't turn out as well as I hoped. The salmon was a little dry and the fruit was too tart.

These skewers are delicious! The salmon is cooked perfectly and the fruit is sweet and juicy. I highly recommend them.

I've made these skewers several times and they're always a hit. They're perfect for a party or a weeknight meal.

These skewers are a great way to use up leftover salmon. I also like to add some grilled vegetables to the skewers for a more colorful dish.

I'm not a big fan of salmon, but I really enjoyed these skewers. The fruit helped to balance out the flavor of the salmon.

These skewers were a huge hit at my last barbecue! The salmon was cooked perfectly and the fruit was sweet and juicy. I'll definitely be making these again.
