Ingrediente

1 pound skinless wild salmon fillet

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

3 garlic cloves, minced

2 teaspoons sweet paprika

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon sumac

2 tablespoons olive oil

½ teaspoon Aleppo pepper or crushed red pepper flakes

⅛ teaspoon ground turmeric

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives, for garnish

Instrucțiuni

1. Cut the salmon into 1-inch cubes and set aside.

2. In a medium bowl, combine the lemon juice, garlic, paprika, onion powder, sumac, 2 teaspoons of the olive oil, the Aleppo pepper, turmeric, and salt and pepper to taste. Give it a good mix.

3. Add the salmon cubes and fold them into the marinade until all sides are evenly coated. Let marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour at room temperature.

4. Place the cubes on wooden skewers. Make sure to measure the skewers first to ensure that they fit on your grill or in your

stovetop pan.

5. If cooking on an outdoor grill: Grease the grill with the remaining olive oil well to prevent the skewers from sticking, or use a nonstick grill grid. Place the skewers over medium heat and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until the fish is opaque and flaky.

6. If cooking on the stove: Grab a cast-iron grill pan (or a regular pan, if you don't have a grill pan) and set it over medium heat. Coat the pan with the remaining olive oil. (Use a cooking brush to help ensure that the pan is completely coated.) Once the pan is hot, add the skewers and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until the fish is opaque and flaky.

7. Place on a serving plate and garnish with the chopped chives, and serve.
