Soy And Lime Calamari Skewers Recipes

Steps:

• Soak skewers in water for 30 minutes. Drain.
• Combine vinegar, soy, lime juice, sugar, oil, ginger and onions. Stir until sugar dissolves.
• Cut each calamari ring in half. Thread onto skewers in a concertina fashion.
• Heat a barbecue plate on high heat. Spray skewers with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Barbecue for 2 minutes, turning, or until tender. Serve with soy and lime sauce.

Steps:

• Put the curry, cumin, fennel, peppercorns, cayenne, and salt in a spice mill or clean coffee grinder. Grind to a fine powder and set aside.
• Rinse the calamari tubes under cool water and pat dry. Split the bodies from top to bottom so you have 2 triangular pieces from each. Thread a skewer through the length of each piece to secure. Put the skewered calamari on a platter and drizzle with a 3-count of oil. Place a large grill pan on 2 burners over medium-high heat, or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Fold a few paper towels into a thick square. Blot some oil on the paper towels and then carefully and quickly wipe the ridges of the grill pan or the hot grates of the grill. Grill the calamari for 2 minutes per side (no longer or they will get rubbery). Place the limes on the grill, cut side down, for 2 minutes or until slightly charred.
• Sprinkle a little of the spice mix on the calamari and stack the skewers on a serving platter. Squeeze the grilled limes over the calamari and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Soak skewers in water for 30 minutes. While skewers are soaking, combine vinegar, soy sauce, lime juice, sugar, oil, ginger and onions. Stir until sugar dissolves.
• Cut calamari rings in half. After skewers have soaked for 30 minutes - drain water and thread calamari onto skewers going back and forth, concertina style (looks like little waves).
• Heat a large frying pan or barbecue plate on high. Spray skewers with cooking oil and cook for 2 minutes, turning or until tender. Serve with the soy and lime sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat outdoor grill (or grill pan). Cut white and light green parts of scallions into sixteen 1-inch lengths; thinly slice darker green parts.
• In a small bowl, stir together soy sauce, wasabi, honey and ginger root until blended.
• Pour 1/4 cup of soy mixture into a large bowl; set remaining soy mixture aside. Add shrimp, scallops, pepper, mushrooms and 1-inch length scallions to bowl; toss to coat.
• Alternately thread 2 pieces each of shrimp, scallops, pepper, mushrooms and scallions onto each of 8 ten-inch metal skewers. Lightly coat skewers with cooking spray.
• Grill skewers, turning as needed, just until shrimp and scallops are cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove to serving plates or platter and drizzle with reserved soy mixture. Sprinkle with sliced scallions and serve. Yields 2 skewers per serving.
