Skewers aren’t just for beef or chicken, they’re also great for seafood, like shrimp or salmon! These zesty grilled salmon kabobs are easy to assemble and full of healthy Omega-3 fats in each bite. Dusted with fresh oregano and cumin, these skewers are grilled to perfection and are sure to be a hit.
Alongside being tasty, this summer meal is incredibly rich in nutrients. Salmon is rich in Omega-3 fats, and also full of micronutrients like iron, B vitamins, and the antioxidant mineral selenium. The selenium is particularly important because it helps protect against any mercury that may be present in the fish.
A side of cauliflower rice tossed with herbs and a squeeze of lemon and lime juice would be a great base for these skewers. You can also toss some veggies on the grill and serve those alongside these skewers, too.
