Mediterranean Grilled Shrimp Kabobs Recipes

Steps:

• Place skewers in water and let them soak at least 20 minutes or until you are ready to use them.
• Rinse and dry shrimp.
• Put both oils in resealable plastic bag; add shrimp and toss to coat them with oil.
• Add bread crumbs, garlic, parsley, basil, salt and pepper.
• Toss shrimp to give them a coating of dry mixture.
• (You're wondering how the breading is going to stay adhered to the shrimp, right? Fear not- that's what the next step accomplishes).
• Seal bag and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• (Do not skip this step).
• Thread shrimp on wet skewers.
• Grill on HOT grill for 2 minutes per side or until golden.
• Do not overcook.

Steps:

• You can use tomato, onion or other vegetables also.
• Mix the marinade in a ziploc bag, add shrimp, shake to coat.
• Place in refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Soak the skewers in salt water to soften so they will not burn.
• Cut up the vegetables into large enough pieces to place on skewers.
• Remove shrimp from bag.
• Place left over marinade into a bowl for brushing on kabobs as they grill.
• Alternate adding vegetables and shrimp to skewers.
• Place kabobs on cooking sheet.
• Sprinkle with Essence or a dash of cayenne pepper or creole spices to add zing.
• Place Kabobs on the grill away from fire (we use mesquite to add smokie flavor).

• Cook until vegies are tender, approximately 3-5 minutes per side.
• Serve immediately!
• Great with salad or rice dishes.
