Health benefits of Pancetta Salmon Kebabs with Parsley Vinaigrette

Salmon is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are crucial for reducing inflammation and promoting cardiovascular health. It is also rich in vitamin D, which helps regulate insulin levels and improve mood, both of which are important for managing PCOS symptoms. Additionally, salmon provides a good amount of B vitamins, particularly B12, which supports energy production and helps maintain healthy nerve function. Including salmon in your diet can help balance hormones, reduce inflammation, and support overall well-being.

Ingredients

2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground pepper
2 oz pancetta
5 tbsps extra virgin olive oil
24 oz boneless skinned salmon
1 clove garlic
3 tbsps flat-leaf parsley

Instructions

1. Mince the garlic. Cut salmon in to 1 1/2" chunks. Coarsely chop the parsley.

2. Combine 1/4 cup oil, the vinegar, garlic, salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl and set aside.

3. Heat grill to high, 450-550° F (230-290° C). In a large bowl, combine remaining tbsp. oil with remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Turn salmon in oil to coat.

4. Set out rows of 3 salmon chunks on a work surface. Unroll pancetta slices in to strips and wrap strips once or twice around the salmon, weaving long pieces between chunks. Skewer each row of salmon with chunks slightly separated.

5. Oil cooking grate, using tongs and a wad of oiled paper towels. Set kebabs on grate, then grill, covered, turning once, until fish is barely cooked through, 4 minutes.

6. Arrange kebabs on plates. Stir parsley into dressing: spoon on top of kebabs. Serve with warm crusty bread for dunking.
