Shrimp And Onion Kebabs Recipes

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine 1/2 cup salad dressing and shrimp. Cut each onion into eight wedges. In another large resealable plastic bag, combine the vegetables and remaining dressing. Seal bags and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 2 hours, turning occasionally., Drain and discard marinade. On eight metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread the shrimp and vegetables. Grill kabobs, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 6 minutes or until shrimp turn pink, turning occasionally.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, garlic, oregano, lemon juice, and zest and season with salt and pepper.
• Alternately thread the shrimp, squash, onion, and zucchini onto the skewers, using 4 shrimp per skewer.
• Put the kebabs in a shallow baking dish and pour the marinade over the top. Marinate the kebabs at room temperature, turning occasionally, for 10 minutes.
• Preheat an indoor grill pan or an outdoor grill. Grill the kebabs, turning and basting with the marinade occasionally, until lightly charred and just-cooked through, about 4 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan of boiling water boil onions until tender, 3 to 4 minutes, and drain in a colander. When onions are just cool enough to handle, peel, leaving root ends intact. While onions are still warm, in a bowl stir together with 1/4 cup marinade. Marinate onions, covered and chilled, stirring occasionally, 1 day.
• If desired, shell shrimp (see note, above). In a large heavy-duty sealable plastic bag combine shrimp with 3/4 cup marinade and seal bag, pressing out excess air. Marinate shrimp, chilled, at least 1 hour and up to 4. Prepare grill. Soak skewers in warm water 30 minutes.
• Drain shrimp, discarding marinade. In a sieve set over a bowl drain onions and reserve marinade for basting. Thread 3 shrimp and 2 onions, alternating shrimp with onions, onto skewers. Kebabs may be assembled 1 hour ahead and chilled, covered.
• Grill kebabs on a lightly oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals, basting with reserved marinade and turning them occasionally, until just cooked through, about 3 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, broil kebabs under a preheated broiler 2 to 3 inches from heat about 2 1/2 minutes on each side.) Drizzle kebabs with remaining 1/4 cup marinade.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for cooking over medium-high heat.
• Add the shrimp, garlic, butter, Cajun Select Seasoning, juice of 1/2 lemon and some salt and pepper to a bowl and toss all together. Skewer the shrimp on metal skewers. Grill the shrimp, drizzling with hot sauce if desired, until plump and pink, about 2 minutes per side.
• Grill the remaining 1/2 lemon until charred, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve with the shrimp.
• Blend together the salt, granulated garlic, paprika, cayenne, onion powder, black pepper, sugar, basil, celery seed and oregano in a bowl until combined. Store in an airtight jar for up to 6 months.

Steps:

• If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes. Preheat the broiler or prepare the grill.
• To make the marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together the jerk sauce, 1/2 cup of the olive oil, the ginger, salt, and pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Cover and marinate for 15 minutes.
• In a separate bowl, toss the tomatoes and onion with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Spread the vegetables out on a large plate and microwave them for 2 minutes. Let the vegetables cool slightly, then thread them onto skewers along with the shrimp.
• Place the skewers on a rimmed baking sheet lined with aluminum foil, or, if grilling, place on the grill. Cook, turning once, for 5 to 6 minutes more, or until the vegetables are tender and the shrimp are opaque. Garnish with the parsley before serving.
• If you can't find jerk sauce, you can skip it and make this even simpler. Just brush the shrimp and veggies with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and grill as directed. The shrimp won't be spicy, but their sweet flavor will really shine.

Steps:

• Soak bamboo skewers in water for 15 minutes before using.
• Alternately, skewer shrimp, mango and onion pieces.
• Place in a dish large enough for skewers in one layer.
• Sprinkle garlic, cilantro, red pepper flakes and lime juice over all.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes, turning after 7 or 8 minutes.
• Prepare grill.
• Spray or lightly brush olive oil onto kebabs.
• Grill for 3 to 4 minutes per side or until shrimp is pink and opaque.
• Enjoy!
