- Using two skewers side-by-side, an inch apart, thread: salmon, red bell pepper, pineapple, red bell pepper then repeat. Continue alternating ingredients to fill skewers. Preheat oven to broil for 2 minutes. Spray baking sheet with non-stick spray and place skewers, evenly apart.

TIPS & NOTES
- Soak the skewers in water, before you begin to prepare the recipe, this will prevent them from burning.
- Using two skewers to thread each serving, prevents flipping and allows you to turn the skewers easily.
- Try adding other vegetables to the skewers such as onions, zucchini and mushrooms.
- This recipe also is great grilled or baked at 400°F for 10 – 12 minutes until done.
- Serve these salmon skewers over a bed of Tony Chachere’s Butter & Herb Rice with vegetables for a complete dinner.
