Method

For the Shrimp Kabobs

  1. 1

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Marinate for 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Skewers

    Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning. Thread shrimp, bell peppers, and red onion onto skewers.

  3. 3

    Cook the Kabobs

    Preheat the wood-fired grill. Grill skewers for 2-3 minutes on each side until shrimp are opaque and cooked through.

For the Rice Pilaf

  1. 4

    Sauté Onion

    In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent.

  2. 5

    Cook the Rice

    Add rice to the saucepan and stir for 1 minute. Pour in chicken broth and salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 15 minutes.

For the Garden Salad

  1. 6

    Prepare the Salad

    In a large bowl, toss mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, then season with salt and pepper to taste.

For the Orange Rolls

  1. 7

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

  2. 8

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, mix milk, orange juice, and melted butter. Gradually add to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

  3. 9

    Bake the Rolls

    Spoon the batter into greased muffin tins. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, until golden.
