Impress your guests with these easy, elegant herb-filled salmon pockets served in a grilled zucchini weave.

In this festive appetizer, grilled zucchini slices are interwoven to form delicious bundles of spicy salmon, red bell pepper, parsley, chives and spices. Salmon is a great, versatile fish to work with in the kitchen. Plus, this heart-healthy protein is filled with omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins and minerals!

These zucchini salmon pockets may look like something you’d order at a fancy restaurant, but they are surprisingly easy to throw together. Simply use a vegetable peeler to peel zucchini into ⅛-inch slices lengthwise, flipping it when you reach the seeds in the middle, and repeat on the other side.

Don’t use the first couple of slices from either side, as they’ll be mostly skin and tough to bend (save the middles and skin as a snack for later).

Brush the slices with olive oil and add to a hot grill for just few seconds to give them those beautiful grill marks and a nice smoky taste.

Next, process the ingredients for the salmon filling until a paste forms.

Arrange two zucchini slices vertically and two horizontally, interlacing them in a simple weave.

Place a tablespoon of the salmon mixture in the middle, then wrap the zucchini into a bundle and bake for 15 minutes.

You can serve them hot or cold – it’ll be delicious either way!

Tips:

Fresh cod or tuna fillets can be used in place of the salmon.

For extra protein and flavor, place a small piece of smoked salmon in the zucchini weave before adding the salmon mixture.

These wraps are best served fresh.
