If you are firing up the grill for the first time this season, I have the most amazing salmon kebab recipe for you! They are so delicious.
Salmon is great for grilling. It’s a popular fish and you can make them into mouthwatering salmon skewers that everyone just can’t stop eating. These garlic butter salmon kebabs are exactly what you need to please your crowd.
How long do you cook salmon kabob on the grill? Salmon takes a very short time to cook and because of its flaky texture, you want to be very quick.
First, you cut salmon into cubes and coat with some olive oil. Then add salt and ground black pepper. Secondly, you make the garlic butter with lemon juice and herbs.
Grill the salmon kabobs about 1-2 minutes on each side. Transfer to a serving platter and drizzle the garlic butter on the salmon skewers.
That’s all you need to do and voila, party is on with the juiciest, flakiest, and delicious salmon kebab ever. Enjoy!

This was a fabulous recipe. I adjusted the ingredients for 1 pound of salmon instead of 1.5. I minced up fresh thyme as my herbs (I’m crazy about thyme) and it was wonderful. If I didn’t have fresh thyme I would certainly use ground thyme!
We had it with white rice and frozen peas. Great meal!
