Shrimp Kebabs

Pan fried shrimp kebabs (or kabobs) are tempting as an appetizer or main course or as part of a seafood plate.

They can also be grilled on the BBQ on medium high temperature for 2-3 minutes per side. I would def add pineapple chunks to the skewers if barbecuing!

Ingredients:

1 lb - 31/40 peeled, deveined shrimp

1 red bell pepper cut in 1/2" pieces

1 yellow bell pepper cut in 1/2" pieces

1 red onion cut in 1/2" pieces

Marinade:

4 tbsps olive oil

1 tbsp honey

1 1/2 tbsps soya sauce

1 tsp lemon zest

2 tsps chopped celery leaves

1 tsp dry thyme

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

1 tsp minced garlic

Prepare the shrimp (tail on or off) and cut the vegetables. Whisk the marinade ingredients together in a large bowl and add the shrimp and veggies. Toss to coat, cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.

Then feed the shrimp, onions and peppers onto skewers. I used 6" ones because they fit in my skillet nicely. Brush the remaining marinade over top and cook on medium high heat for 2-3 minutes per side or until the shrimp are pink and the vegetables are tender.

They were lovely on our New Year's Day plate!
