Salmon Kabobs with Baby Bok Choy

A wonderful way to enjoy salmon!  The sauce is sweet and the bok choy flavourful.  I really enjoy cooking with sesame oil as it has a very distinctive flavour.  Serve with a side of rice or Quinoa.  From Canadian Living/The Barbecue Collection

4 tsp soy sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
2 tsp each lemon juice and sesame oil
1 top liquid honey
1/4 tsp hot pepper flakes
4 skinless salmon fillets, each about 170 g, quartered crosswise

BABY BOK CHOY
1 tbsp butter
1 shallot minced
2 tsp minced fresh ginger
1 clove garlic, minced
4 baby bok choy, halved lengthwise
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp sesame oil


  • In a shallow dish, mix together soy sauce, oyster sauce, lemon juice, sesame oil, honey and hot pepper flakes.  Add salmon, turning to coat; marinate for 10 minutes.
  • Thread salmon onto skewers.  Grill, covered on greased grill over medium high heat, turning once, until grill marked and fish flakes easily when tested, 8 to 10 minutes.

  • Meanwhile in skillet (I use a cast iron), melt butter over medium high heat; sauté shallot, ginger and garlic for 1 minute.  Add bok choy, 1/4 cup water and salt; cover and steam for 2 minutes.  Uncover and cook until tender crisp, 2 to 3 minutes.  Drizzle with sesame oil.  SErve with salmon.
