Ingredients
Whipped Feta
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 cup greek yogurt
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 teaspoon lemon zest
- freshly ground pepper
Mediterranean Salmon
- 1 ½ pounds salmon fillets cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 lemon sliced into ¼ inch thick rounds
- 3 bell peppers sliced into 1 inch pieces
- 1 red onion sliced into 1 inch pieces
- salt and pepper to taste
To Serve:
- Pita bread
- Lemon wedges
Instructions
- Pre-heat barbecue over medium-high.
- Assemble skewers with a mixture of salmon cubes, lemon slices, and bell pepper and onion pieces. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Spray barbecue with spray oil (don't be shy, you don't want the salmon to stick to the grill!).
- Arrange the skewers on the grill, and cook with the lid down for 4 minutes.
- Gently pry the skewers from the grill (the salmon may stick slightly, but should come off with a bit of teasing), and flip over. Put the lid down, and cook for another 4-6 minutes, until salmon is cooked through and flakes with a fork.
- Serve immediately with pita bread and lemon wedges.
