Total Time: 26 mins

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoon rosemary, fresh, minced
  • 2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 clove(s) garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest, freshly grated
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, Kosher (or substitute Braggs amino soy product)
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper, black ground
  • 1 pounds fish, salmon fillet, center-cut, skinned, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 pint(s) tomato(es), cherry

Recipe Tip:

  • To oil the grill rack: oil a folded paper towel, hold it with tongs and rub it over the rack. (Don't use cooking spray on a hot grill.)
  • Make sure to buy omega-3 rich wild-caught salmon instead of farm raised.

Preparation

1. Preheat grill to medium-high. 

2. Combine rosemary, oil, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add salmon; toss to coat. Alternating the salmon and tomatoes, divide among eight 12-inch skewers.

3. Oil the grill rack (see Tip). Grill the skewers, carefully turning once, until the salmon is cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes total. Serve immediately.
