Sweet and Spicy Salmon Skewers

Sweet & Spicy Salmon Skewers

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb. raw salmon, cut into 1.5 inch cubes
  • 8 cherry tomatoes
  • 1 large yellow pepper, cored; seeded and cut into 1 in pieces
  • 1/2 onion, cut into 1 in pieces
  • 4 wooden skewers

Marinade:

  • 1 tsp each: cayenne pepper, sea salt, parsley
  • 2 tsp chopped garlic
  • 1 TB light brown sugar
  • 1 TB reduced-sugar ketchup

Directions:

Mix the marinade together and set aside.  Prepare all the vegetables and fish. Place all the ingredients (minus the skewers, duh.) in a gallon bag and shake that sucker up.  Place in the fridge for 20 minutes.  Preheat the oven to broil.

Cover broiler pan with foil and arrange skewers on top. Put in oven for approximately 3 min. Turn kabobs and broil for an additional 3 to 4 min or until salmon is no longer pink and veggies are well-browned

I added some delicious Baked Lemon and Thyme Mushrooms (Super easy and delicious!)
