Steps:
- Preheat grill to medium-low heat.
- Chop the salmon meat by using a knife or a food processor, being careful not to pulverize the meat. Mix the salmon meat with cilantro, ginger, lemongrass, garlic and salt. Form little patties directly onto the skewers using your hands. Make sure the patties are firmly attached to the skewers before putting them onto the grill.
- Brush the grill with olive oil. Grill the skewers until salmon is just cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove the kebabs from the grill and serve immediately with plain yogurt or favorite yogurt dip.

Steps:
- Preheat the grill to 375 degrees F.
- Add the olive oil, Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to a large bowl and whisk to combine. Add the salmon, red onion, and lemon quarters to the bowl and gently toss to coat.
- To assemble the kebabs, thread a few pieces of red onion onto an 8-inch-long metal skewer (see Cook's Note). Next, add a piece of salmon, followed by a quarter of lemon. Continue threading the ingredients onto the skewer until you have 4 pieces of salmon on the skewer. Set the finished kebab aside and continue the process with the remaining skewers and ingredients.
- Generously oil the grates of the preheated grill. Add the salmon kebabs to the grill and cook, turning halfway through, until nice grill marks have formed, and the salmon easily releases from the grill, 4 to 6 minutes. (This can alternatively be done on an indoor grill pan.)
- Remove the salmon to a serving platter and drizzle with the Herb Sauce. Serve with lemon wedges.
- Add the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a small food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Pulse until the garlic is finely chopped. Add the basil and parsley leaves and blend until finely chopped. Transfer the herb sauce to a bowl to serve with the grilled salmon.
GRILLED SALMON KEBABS WITH KALE TABBOULEH
Salmon is not only the perfect foil for a fresh tabbouleh salad, but it's also hearty enough to withstand skewering and grilling, and won't flake apart as easily as leaner white fish. This dish packs the punch of two major superfoods: omega-3 rich salmon and vitamin-loaded kale.

Steps:
- Cook the bulgur as the label directs. Meanwhile, toss the kale, tomatoes, scallions, mint, 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 4 teaspoons olive oil in a large bowl. Fluff the bulgur and stir into the kale mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate while you prepare the kebabs.
- Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Whisk the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil, the cumin and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add the salmon chunks, tossing well to coat. Thread the salmon onto 8 skewers. (If using wooden skewers, soak them in water first for about 20 minutes.) Oil the grill grates; grill the kebabs, turning, until the fish is opaque, 6 to 8 minutes.
- While the fish cooks, stir together the yogurt, cucumber and remaining lemon juice (about 1 tablespoon); season with salt and pepper. Divide the tabbouleh and salmon kebabs among plates; serve with the yogurt sauce and lemon wedges.

Steps:

- Grill, turning occasionally, until fish is opaque throughout, 5-8 minutes.
SPICED SALMON KEBABS WITH YOGURT SAUCE
Steps:
- Heat grill to high. Place spices in a small saute pan and toast on the grill for 45 to 60 seconds, shaking the pan several times, or until just fragrant. Let cool slightly and grind in a spice grinder or coffee grinder until finely ground. Process yogurt, onion, lemon juice, zest, cayenne, and toasted spices in a food processor until smooth. Set aside or refrigerate if not using for a while. Thread salmon onto skewers so the fish lies flat. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until slightly charred and just cooked through. Serve with yogurt sauce on the side and drizzle the juice of 1/2 orange over all.
Tips:
- Choose the right salmon: Look for fresh, wild-caught salmon if possible. It should be firm to the touch and have a vibrant color.
- Use a variety of spices: The spices in this recipe can be adjusted to your taste. For a milder flavor, use less cayenne pepper and cumin. For a more intense flavor, add more.
- Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook it until it is just opaque in the center, about 8-10 minutes per side.
- Make the yogurt sauce ahead of time: The yogurt sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance. This will give the flavors time to meld.
- Serve the salmon kebabs with your favorite sides: These salmon kebabs can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, quinoa, or roasted vegetables.
Conclusion:
These spiced salmon kebabs with yogurt sauce are a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a summer cookout or a weeknight dinner. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the yogurt sauce is tangy and refreshing. If you're looking for a new way to enjoy salmon, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
