Step-by-Step
In a large bowl, combine the cubed chicken and salmon. Add the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently to coat the protein evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to marinate.
In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, chopped parsley, dill, lemon zest, and minced garlic. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate the herb butter until ready to serve.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated chicken and salmon onto metal or wooden skewers, alternating the pieces. Grill the skewers for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the salmon is opaque.
Transfer the grilled skewers to a serving platter. Serve immediately with the chilled herb butter on the side, allowing guests to top the skewers with the flavorful butter.
