Sensational Watermelon Salmon Skewers - Ingredients:
- 1 lb boneless skinless salmon fillet, cut lengthwise into ½ inch wide strips
16 wooden skewers Sesame seeds 1-in piece fresh ginger root ½ cup mirin (available in Asian section) ¼ cup sake (Japanese rice wine) ¼ cup lite soy sauce ¼ cup watermelon juice 2 tablespoons rice vinegar 2 tablespoons sugar 6 cups diced watermelon - Instructions:
- Peel and chop ginger root. In a blender, combine ginger root with remaining marinade ingredients and blend until smooth. Thread salmon onto skewers. Marinate fish for 2 hours to 2 days in refrigerator. Transfer to baking sheet. Sprinkle salmon with sesame seeds. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake until salmon is just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. I also like to grill these. Serve on place with diced watermelon. Great with Watermelon and Pecan Spread, pictured in center of skewers.
