Colorful, Healthy Grilled Salmon Skewers

Colorful, Healthy Grilled Salmon Skewers

This is a very simple recipe that I love to make on a summer evening over the BBQ. The color contrast of the peppers and red onion with the pink salmon is just as appetizing to the eye as the flavor is to the palette. Alternatively, this recipe can also easily be done with chicken, beef or lamb.

I usually serve this with a quinoa salad or fresh kale salad for a complete meal! Add a fresh squeeze of lemon right before serving and you will be delighted at the results. These kebabs came about over the long May weekend when my 5 year old niece and I were cooking together. I typically find salmon too strong a taste, however by adding the onions and the peppers the flavour of the salmon is mellowed, appeasing even the most critical taste buds. Simple enough for even a 5 year old to make and very pretty to look at!
