GRILLED SHRIMP AND SAUSAGE SKEWERS WITH SMOKY PAPRIKA GLAZE

Grilled Shrimp and Sausage Skewers with Smoky Paprika Glaze image

These delicious kebabs are a Spanish take on surf and turf. Because the skewers aren't on the grill long enough to cook fresh sausages, fully cooked sausages are used here.

LOWCOUNTRY SHRIMP AND SAUSAGE MUSCADINE SKEWERS

Lowcountry Shrimp and Sausage Muscadine Skewers image

Juneteenth is all about outdoor celebrations with family, and that means grilling. African American culture is rich in both hog farming and shrimping culture, so my Lowcountry spin on Juneteenth grilling pairs our favorite sausage from Roger Wood, based in Savannah, GA, with Bennetts Point shrimp from the docks of the South Carolina Sea Islands. For the sauce, I use red muscadine wine to make a marinade. The muscadine grape is local to the South and a huge part of my Southern childhood was picking muscadines on my grandfather's property. This is a perfect appetizer to pair with a cocktail or serve as a snack to picky kids such as mine.

Time 45m

Yield 10 skewers

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1 cup muscadine wine or cider
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
2 cloves garlic, grated
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
2 pounds jumbo shrimp (16/20), cleaned and shelled
4 smoked sausage links, sliced into medallions 1/2 inch thick
Neutral oil with a high smoking point, for the grill

Steps:

Fill a baking dish with water and place ten 12-inch-long wooden skewers in it to soak for 30 minutes.
In a small bowl, add the muscadine wine, olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, garlic, honey and paprika. Whisk to combine. Reserve 1/4 cup of the sauce for serving.
Thread the shrimp and sausage onto the skewers, alternating between the two and leaving a 2-inch space at the blunt end of each skewer for a handle. Using a pastry brush, coat each skewer in some of the remaining muscadine sauce. Be sure to brush all sides.
Heat a grill over medium-high heat; oil the grill grates.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook until the shrimp are opaque with some nice crispy caramelization, brushing with more sauce as they flip and cook, 3 to 5 minutes. Drizzle with the reserved sauce and serve!

SHRIMP AND SAUSAGE KABOBS

Alternatively, you can use wood skewers that have been soaked in water for 30 minutes. Kabobs come off the skewers more easily if you coat the skewers with nonstick spray. Good with buttered baked potatoes or rice.
