Easy Lemon Salmon Kabobs

Method

  1. 1

    If you are using wooden skewers, soak them for 30 minutes before beginning this recipe. This is so they will not burn in the air fryer.

  2. 2

    Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Slice the wild sockeye salmon fillet into small cubes, about 1- 1 1/2 inches in thickness.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lemon juice, olive oil, dried oregano, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Place the salmon cubes in the marinade and toss to coat evenly.

  4. 4

    You can marinade the salmon in the fridge for up to 30 minutes but you don't have to. It does help infuse more flavor.

  5. 5

    Thread the salmon cubes onto the wooden skewers, alternating with lemon slices. Brush the remaining marinade over the salmon skewers.

  6. 6

    Place the skewers in the preheated air fryer basket and cook for 5 - 7 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork and until the internal temperature is 145°F.

Notes

Use fresh salmon fillet for best results Keep the salmon cubes uniform in size to ensure even cooking. Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using them to prevent them from burning in the air fryer. If you don't have an air fryer, you can grill the salmon skewers on a barbecue or bake them in the oven. Feel free to customize the seasoning to your liking by adding more or less of the herbs and spices in the marinade.
