Honey Ginger Grilled Shrimp Skewers Recipes

GRILLED SHRIMP SKEWERS

Steps:

• Place the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, oregano, paprika and garlic powder in a large bowl; whisk to combine.
• Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss gently to coat evenly with the marinade. Marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours max.
• Skewer 4-6 shrimp on each soaked skewer and place on a plate while skewering the remaining shrimp.
• Heat a grill or grill pan over medium high heat and cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until the color is pink and shrimp is opaque.
• Serve warm with fresh parsley and lemon slices, if desired.

HONEY-GARLIC SHRIMP SKEWERS

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and a large skillet over medium heat.
• For the shrimp: In a small bowl, mix together the honey, sriracha, crushed red pepper, garlic, lime zest and juice and 1 tablespoon of the parsley. Set the glaze aside.
• Thread the shrimp onto 4 metal skewers, 5 shrimp per skewer. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Place on the grill pan and cook for 2 minutes. Flip the shrimp, brush the top with the glaze and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Flip the glazed side down, brush the top with the glaze and cook for an additional minute. Flip, glaze and cook until the shrimp are cooked through, up to an additional minute per side. Remove from the grill and drizzle with any remaining glaze.
• For the spinach: Meanwhile, heat the oil in the skillet and add the spinach and garlic. Season with salt and pepper and cook until wilted, about 1 minute.
• Make a bed with the spinach on a serving platter. Top with the shrimp skewers and garnish with the remaining parsley.

GRILLED SHRIMP SKEWERS

Steps:

• Put the olive oil, garlic and chile flakes in a small skillet. Turn the heat to low and let the mixture heat for about 10 minutes; the oil should just barely simmer around the garlic in the last few minutes. Remove from the heat and cool slightly. Transfer to a blender, add the 1 tablespoon oregano and some salt and pepper, and blend until the garlic and oregano are finely chopped. Set aside half of the chile-garlic oil for serving.
• Heat the grill to high. Thread the shrimp onto skewers, about 4 or 5 shrimp per skewer, threading so that the skewers goes through the tail and thick end of each shrimp. Brush the shrimp with some of the chile-garlic oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until lightly golden brown on both sides and opaque, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer the skewers to a platter and immediately drizzle with some of the reserved chile-garlic oil (not the oil you used for brushing the raw shrimp). Garnish with oregano, and serve with more of the reserved oil.

HONEY GINGER GRILLED SHRIMP SKEWERS

Steps:

• If using wooden skewers, place them in water to soak before prepping the recipe.
• Combine all the ingredients in a large measuring cup and stir together with a small whisk.
• Place the shrimp in a large ziplock bag, then pour the marinade over the shrimp and set it inside the fridge to marinate for 20 minutes.
• Next prep the bell peppers. Cut the tops and bottoms off with the knife and remove the seeds by hand or by tapping the pepper over the counter or a garbage can. Cut the pepper in half, then slice each half into three pieces. Slice each of those three pieces in two and set aside.
• For the onion, slice it with the knife in half. Then depending on the size of the onion, make two or three cuts in the other direction. You want to divide the onion into roughly the same size pieces as the bell pepper (with the outer layers likely being a bit larger and the inner layers being quite a bit smaller).
• Prep the pineapple by slicing off the top, bottom, and the outer layers. Cut the pineapple from top to bottom twice, leaving 4 long piece. Slice the very tip of each piece off (the core of the pineapple), so the piece remaining does not contain any hard parts. Then cut each slice into roughly 1-inch pieces.
• Take half of the skewers and slide the produce onto them in whatever order you like, leaving a little bit of space between each one. When placing the onion pieces on, you can include two layers at a time for convenience. Place the finished skewers on a large plate or platter to easily carry them to the grill.
• Using a basting brush, lightly brush the vegetables and pineapple with a high heat oil (like avocado oil), making sure to get all sides of each piece.
• Once the shrimp is done marinating, remove it from the refrigerator. Take a piece and very gently shake off any residual marinade. Slide it onto a skewer, then repeat the process until all the shrimp is on a skewer. Be sure to leave a little room between each piece of shrimp to ensure more even cooking. Throw away any marinade left over from the meat.
• Oil the grill using a paper towel dipped in (but not saturated with) the same high heat oil. Then heat the grill to a medium heat (400 to 450 degrees F).
• If you have a large grill that heats evenly, you will be able to cook the produce and shrimp skewers at the same time. If you don't, you can cook the produce skewers first as they will take longer, then remove them and cook the shrimp skewers.
• Once the grill is at temperature, put an oven mitt on your hand and place the skewers on the grill and close the lid. Cook the produce ones for 4 to 5 minutes on all four sides (16 to 20 mins total). For the shrimp, cook 2 minutes on one side then flip and cook 2 to 3 minutes on the other side. The shrimp will be done when they are opaque all the way through.
• Service with a side, like rice or cauliflower rice.
