These Grilled Salmon Kebabs (5 Ingredients) are a quick and healthy grilling recipe made with tender salmon, olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic. Perfect for summer cookouts or easy weeknight dinners, this simple salmon kebab recipe delivers smoky, juicy flavor with minimal prep and bold results every time.

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ lbs salmon fillets, skin removed and cut into 1-inch cubes

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

  • In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.

  • Add salmon cubes and gently toss to coat evenly. Marinate for 10–15 minutes.

  • Thread salmon onto skewers, leaving a small space between each piece for even cooking.

  • Grill skewers for 2–3 minutes per side, turning carefully, until salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork (internal temperature 145°F / 63°C).

  • Remove from grill and serve immediately.

Notes

  • If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling.

  • Do not marinate longer than 30 minutes, as lemon juice can begin to break down the fish.

  • A teaspoon of honey or a pinch of smoked paprika can add extra flavor.

  • These can also be baked at 400°F (200°C) for 8–10 minutes if you don’t have a grill.

  • Freezing after cooking is not recommended for best texture.
