Skewers

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Seafood

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper to make the marinade. Add the shrimp and scallops, tossing to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Skewers

    Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning. If using metal skewers, ensure they are clean and ready for use.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Skewers

    Thread the marinated shrimp and scallops onto the skewers, alternating between the two. Aim for 3 shrimp and 3 scallops per skewer.

  4. 4

    Grill the Skewers

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp are opaque and the scallops are golden brown.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a minute. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
