Seafood Brochettes Recipes

Steps:

• Alternate seafood pieces on skewers, allowing 2 skewers per guest. Coat well with shrimp butter and place on charcoal grill or under broiler. Cook about 2 minutes a side, depending on thickness of fish pieces, basting often with shrimp butter.

Steps:

• Melt tablespoon of butter in double boiler or saucepan over low heat and add shallots. Cook until shallots are tender, about 10 minutes.
• Add shrimp shells and remaining butter, reduce heat to low and cook for about 5 minutes. Never let butter bubble.
• Pour butter mixture in blender bowl and puree until shells are minced. Pour mixture through sieve lined with cheesecloth into bowl. Add dill, stir well, hold at room temperature until use. (You may want to warm the butter to liquefy it before basting.)

Steps:

• Clean and devein shrimp, leaving the last section and tails intact.
• With a paring knife, carefully slice each shrimp from tail to tip.
• Wash and seed jalapeno, and cut into a pieces about 1/2-inch X 1/2-inch squares.
• Cut slice of cheese into 12 small pieces.
• Stuff one small piece of cheese and one small piece of jalapeno into each shrimp.
• Wrap a half slice of bacon around each shrimp.
• Place shrimp on a wet skewer.
• Repeat this process until all shrimp have been placed on skewers.
• Place in refrigerator for a few minutes while you prepare the rest of the recipe.
• Mix the paparika, cayenne pepper and black pepper together.
• In a small skillet, heat butter and white wine until butter is completely melted.
• Prepare grill.
• ~note~I use my indoor grill, but these can be made on an outdoor grill too, but I would use a low flame!
• Remove shrimp from fridge and brush completely with melted butter.
• Sprinkle with seasonings.
• Grill on each side until shrimp are done.

Steps:

• Peel shrimp; devein. Alternately thread shrimp, grouper, and next 4 ingredients onto 8 (12 inch) skewers. Place skewers, in batches, on a lightly greased rack of a broiler pan. Broil 5 1/2 inches from heat 12 to 15 minutes or until shrimp turn pink and fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, turning and basting with Citrus-Ginger Sauce. Serve over rice.
• Sauce;.
• Combine all ingredients; stir well. (1 1/2 cups).

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for high heat. Soak skewers in water.
• Place a strip of jalapeno into the opening of butterflied shrimp. Wrap with a piece of the bacon, and thread onto skewers so that the shrimp is pierced once through the head, and once through the tail, and bacon is secure. You can usually fit about 6 shrimp on a skewer. Make sure there is a little space between the shrimp, this will help the bacon cook better. Season both sides of the shrimp generously with Cajun seasoning.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Place shrimp skewers on the grill, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on one side. Turn, and place slices of cheese over the shrimp. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, until bacon is browned, and cheese is melted.
