Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • 1/2 medium red onion cut into 4 wedges
  • 1 large lemon cut into 4 wedges
  • bamboo skewers or metal

Instructions
 

  • DO-AHEAD TIP: If using bamboo skewers, presoak them in water for 30 minutes, to prevent burning on the grill.
  • Preheat grill to MEDIUM.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together first 6 ingredients (olive oil through chili powder). Add salmon and onion then gently toss.
  • Alternately thread salmon cubes, onion and lemon wedges onto skewers. Place skewers on the grill; cook for 5 minutes per side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
