Instructions

Make sure the BBQ is hot when start grilling (in about 25 minutes)

Cut the salmon into cubes and put them in the bowl with marinade. Toss well.
1 pound salmon fillets
Let the fish marinate for 20 minutes (toss after 10 minutes, so the salmon is well covered with the marinade). In between, put it in the refrigerator.
Baste two pieces of salmon on a skewer, followed by a lemon or lime wedge and another piece of salmon.

Grill the salmon until done, 3 to 5 minutes. Don't bake it too long, as it will become dry.

2. No BBQ?

Oven: Preheat the oven to 390 °F (200 °C). Place the skewers in an oven dish and drizzle with some extra oil. Bake them for 15 minutes.
