SCALLOP AND LEMON SHRIMP SKEWERS

List of Ingredients




Scallops and shrimp cook very quickly, so they’re a perfect pair in a recipe for the grill.

1 pound of scallops
Juice of 2 limes
2 cloves of garlic, minced
4 sprigs of fresh rosemary (I used the fake in the bottle)
2 tsp honey
¼ cup dry white wine
1 pound jumbo shrimp
Juice of 1 lemon
2 tblsp cilantro, chopped (homemade or prepared)
8 bamboo sticks, or skewers


Recipe



Marinate scallops in lime juice, garlic, rosemary, honey and wine. Marinate at least 2 hours or up to 12 hours. Marinate shrimp in lemon juice, cilantro and chicken stock. Marinate at least 2 hours or up to 12 hours. Thread onto 8 skewers, alternating shrimp and scallops. Grill over a hot fire or broil in the oven, brushing scallops and shrimp with marinate frequently.
Serve over a bed of lemon conscious or risotto.
