These healthy salmon kebabs are easy to make and loaded with flavor. I love the peppery punch from the horseradish and the brightness of the lemon and chives in the marinade. The combination is delicious. I suggest using two skewers per kebab because it makes the delicate fish easier to flip on the grill. I like to serve these with my favorite chopped green salad recipe for the perfect summer meal.
