Cut the salmon fillet into 1-inch cubes. Trim the tough ends off the asparagus spears.
~5 min - 2
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the white miso paste, mirin, soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil to create the glaze.
~2 min - 3
Add the salmon cubes and asparagus spears to the bowl with the glaze. Toss gently to coat evenly. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
~15 min - 4
While the salmon and asparagus marinate, prepare the yuzu aioli. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, yuzu juice, and minced garlic. Season with a pinch of black pepper.
~5 min - 5
Thread the marinated salmon and asparagus onto the skewers, alternating them.
~5 min - 6
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates.
~5 min - 7
Grill the skewers for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and the asparagus is tender-crisp. Baste with any remaining glaze during the last minute of grilling.
~8 min - 8
Serve the Miso-Glazed Salmon and Asparagus Skewers immediately with a dollop of yuzu aioli.
Tips
- For easier cleanup and to prevent sticking, you can soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using them.
- The yuzu aioli can be made a day in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
