Mediterranean flavors are always welcome. The fresh fish, the high quality of olive oil, the freshly cut herbs, eggplants, cucumbers, olives, among others. Doesn't the thought of these ingredients make you feel like you’re in Greece? A light marinade made with a few spices and a good olive oil is all you need to add flavor to the salmon. Cook the fish for just a few minutes so it can come out juicy and tender, not overcooked and dry. And for the side dish, a fresh salad made with vegetables and herbs goes perfect but if you prefer something heartier, you can make couscous or orzo pasta with lots of veggies. A Greek yogurt sauce goes very well with these kabobs but you can use another one of your preference.
