Preheating the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. If using bamboo wood skewers, soak them into water before prepping for salmon.
Preparing the Salmon:
- Clean and pat dry salmon with paper towel. Start by slicing the fillet or portion into long, even strips then cut into cubes of your desired size. (see notes in index for how to remove skin from fillet)
Marinating the Salmon:
- In a bowl, combine salmon cubes, tomato paste, Kashmiri chili powder, whole-fat plain yogurt, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, grated ginger, grated garlic, and oil. Mix well to coat the spices.
Assembling the Skewers:
- Line a parchment paper on a baking sheet or lightly oil it. Thread the marinated salmon cubes on skewers, adding thinly sliced zucchini in between. Repeat the skewers until all the salmon is used.
Baking:
- Place the skewers on a lined baking sheet. Bake in the oven at 400°F for approximately 15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and has a nice golden color.
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once cooked, transfer the skewers to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired. Serve the Tandoori Salmon Skewers with your favorite sides, such as cilantro chutney, raita, basmati rice or naan bread.
Optional Grilling:
- If you prefer, you can also grill the skewers for a smoky flavor. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and grill the skewers for about 3-4 minutes per side or until the salmon is cooked through.
