Hoisin Glazed Salmon Skewers

Makes 4 skewers (serves 4 to 6 people)

These skewers are enough for a crowd or meal prep for the week but can easily be cut in half for a smaller serving. Serve with rice and sliced cucumbers to round out the meal.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 3 pounds salmon, skin off and pin bones removed, cut into 1 to 1½-inch pieces
  • 6 scallions, white parts cut into 1½-inch pieces, green parts thinly sliced
  • ½ teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
  • Lime wedges, for serving

Preparation

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, add the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, and sesame oil. Whisk until combined.
  2. Add the salmon and toss to coat. Cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour.
  3. If using wooden skewers, soak in water while the salmon is marinating.
  4. Toss the scallion whites with the salmon to coat in the sauce. Put 1 piece of salmon onto 1 of the skewers. Then add a piece of the scallion, followed by another piece of salmon. Continue to alternate with the remaining ingredients and skewers. Discard the remaining salmon marinade.
  5. Place the skewers in the air fryer basket. Select Air Fry at 375°F for 10 minutes. Press Start/Stop. When the Toss Reminder sounds, flip the skewers.
  6. When skewers are finished, transfer to a serving plate. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and scallion greens.
