Grilled Alaska Salmon Skewers Amogio
Description
Amogio is a Sicilian marinade composed of lemon juice and/or white wine, olive oil, garlic and herbs - the exact recipe varies from household to household. Marinate salmon in the Amogio for no longer than 30 minutes (so the fish doesn't "cook" in the acidic marinade).
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds Alaska Salmon fillets, skin removed, if desired
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup Robert Mondavi Private Selection Pinot Grigio or Chardonnay
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped Italian parsley
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped mint
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Preparation
Prior to grilling, soak 12 wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
Lay Alaska Salmon on cutting board so that grain of fish is horizontal. Cut salmon lengthwise into 2-inch-wide strips. Place salmon strips in baking dish; set aside.
Thoroughly blend olive oil, wine, lemon juice, garlic, parsley, mint and red pepper flakes in small bowl. Brush marinade onto all sides of salmon; cover and refrigerate up to 30 minutes. Reserve remaining marinade.
Preheat grill or broiler/oven to medium-high heat. Thread salmon strips lengthwise onto skewers. Place skewers on well- oiled grill or spray-coated broiling pan. Grill or broil salmon 5 inches from heat source 3 to 4 minutes per side. Turn once during cooking; brush with remaining marinade. Cook just until fish is opaque throughout. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
