Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds waxy potatoes
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 1/2 pounds skinless salmon fillet, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons honey
3 cups baby spinach (2 ounces)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Heat broiler, with rack in top position. In a medium saucepan, bring potatoes to a boil in salted water and cook until tender when pierced with a knife, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, thread 3 pieces salmon onto each of eight 6-inch wooden skewers. Place skewers in a single layer on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Brush salmon with oil and season with salt and pepper. Fold foil over exposed areas of skewers to prevent burning.
  • Broil salmon until opaque throughout, about 6 minutes, flipping once. Remove from oven and drizzle with honey.
  • Drain potatoes. While still hot, gently smash each potato with the back of a spoon to flatten slightly and place, along with spinach and butter, in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. Serve salmon skewers with potatoes and spinach.

I didn't have any fresh dill, so I used dried dill instead. The salmon skewers still turned out great!

These salmon skewers were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time. Otherwise, they were very good.
