Shrimp And Zucchini Skewers Recipes

GREEK SHRIMP SKEWERS WITH CHOPPED-ZUCCHINI SALAD

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high. Thread shrimp onto metal skewers, with tails facing same direction. Brush shrimp, zucchini, onion, and halved lemon with 3 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill, flipping once, until vegetables are softened in spots, shrimp are cooked through, and lemon is lightly charred, 6 to 8 minutes for vegetables, about 3 minutes for shrimp and lemon.
• Transfer vegetables to a cutting board, shrimp to a plate. Squeeze a grilled lemon half over shrimp. Roughly chop onion and zucchini; toss with lemon zest, 2 tablespoons oil, and feta. Season with salt and pepper. Toss couscous with remaining 3 tablespoons oil, juice from other grilled lemon half, and herbs; season with salt and pepper. Serve shrimp over couscous with zucchini salad, a drizzle of oil, and lemon wedges.

SHRIMP AND ZUCCHINI SKEWERS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill. Skewer the shrimp, with zucchini slices ribboned in between each piece. Stir together the olive oil, pepper flakes, mint, and salt in a glass casserole. Lay in the skewers, cover, and refrigerate for a few hours to marinate, turning once or thrice. Cook on the grill until the shrimp are pink and the zucchini is striped with grill marks, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
