How To Make Scallop and Shrimp Kabobs

These scallop and shrimp kabobs are a fresh Asian-inspired recipe that takes its flavors from pineapple, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, and rice vinegar.

Serves:

Ingredients

1lblarge shrimp,peeled and deveined
½lbscallops
1red bell pepper,cut into 1 inch pieces
1green bell pepper,cut into 1 inch pieces
1fresh pineapple,peeled, cored and cut into wedges
½cuprice vinegar
2tspsesame oil
2tspfresh ginger root,minced
3tbsplight soy sauce

Instructions

If using wooden skewers, soak 6 of them in warm water for 15 minutes. This prevents the skewers from catching on fire while the kabobs cook. Then thread the shrimp, scallops, peppers, and pineapple on the skewers.

For basting sauce:

In a medium-size mixing bowl, combine rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, and soy sauce. Mix well.
Prepare an outside grill with an oiled rack set 4 inches above the heat source. Place the skewers on the grill and baste with some of the sauce. Grill kabobs for about 5 to 6 minutes total, turning and basting with the sauce while grilling. Heat remaining basting sauce until warm and serve on the side.
