Ingredients

For the Skewers

  • 1 1/2 lbs. sockeye salmon, pin bones and skin removed, cut into 2-inch cubes
  • 2 zucchini squash, very thinly sliced
  • 1-2 lemons, thinly sliced
  • 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
  • Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 10 minutes before use

For the Yogurt Dipping Sauce

  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2/3 cup cucumber, chopped
  • 1 Tbsp. wine vinegar
  • 3 Tbsp. fresh dill
  • 1 Tbsp. fresh mint
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill.
  2. Add all of the yogurt dipping sauce ingredients to a food processor or blender and whirl to combine. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  3. Add the cubed salmon and zucchini to a bowl. In a smaller bowl, stir together the oil, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt and garlic powder until combined. Pour over the salmon and zucchini and toss to coat.
  4. Layer the skewers with one cube of salmon, followed by a zucchini, then a lemon slice. Repeat until the skewers are full, being careful not to overcrowd the skewer for even cooking.
  5. Grill the skewers until the salmon is cooked to medium in the center and the zucchini is crisp-tender.
  6. Serve promptly with the yogurt dipping sauce on the side.

By Heinen's Grocery Store

In 1929, Joe Heinen opened the doors of a small butcher shop on the east side of Cleveland, Ohio, aiming to establish himself as the city’s purveyor of quality meats. As customers came into Heinen’s new shop for their meat purchases, they began asking him to carry groceries as well. Joe added homemade peanut butter, pickles and donuts and by 1933, business had grown enough to include a line of produce and canned goods. Heinen’s Grocery Store was born.
