These Korean BBQ Glazed Salmon Skewers you need to try! Flaky grilled gochujang salmon kebabs coated in a sweet and spicy Korean barbecue sauce perfect for an easy Asian inspired dinner at home.
Sauce:
Prep:
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes. This is needed to prevent them from burning.
Dice salmon into 2” pieces (try to make even sized pieces) and season with salt and pepper.
Thread salmon pieces on skewers, about 5 on each.
Cook Salmon:
Heat a nonstick grill pan (or pan) over medium, lightly grease with cooking spray and add the salmon.
(Meanwhile, cook sauce.)
Cook on one side for 4-5 mins, and flip. Cook other side for another 3-4 mins until cooked, pink, and no longer translucent.
Prepare sauce:
While the salmon cooks, heat a small nonstick pan over medium.
In a small bowl, whisk together the gochujang paste, coconut aminos/soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, garlic, stevia sweetener and water.
Pour mixture into pot/pan and allow to slightly thicken.
Transfer to a bowl before it starts sticking to the pan. Sauce will thicken when cooled.
Combine and serve:
Spread the bbq glaze on the first cooked side using a spoon or basting brush.
Transfer to a serving dish (optionally glaze other side too) and pour more sauce on.
Sprinkle on sesame seeds and serve with steamed vegetables or rice.
