Chicken Skewer

Method

Chicken Skewer

  1. 1

    In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon zest and juice, minced garlic, paprika, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

  2. 2

    Add shrimp to the marinade and toss to coat. Let marinate in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 15 minutes before threading.

  4. 4

    Thread 4 shrimp onto each skewer, leaving a little space between pieces.

  5. 5

    Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

  6. 6

    Grill skewers 2-3 minutes per side, until shrimp are pink and opaque.

  7. 7

    During the last minute of cooking, brush skewers with melted butter and a squeeze of lemon, then remove from heat.

  8. 8

    Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
