Grilled Shrimp and Scallop Kabobs

  • Prep 10 min
  • Total 25 min
  • Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves or 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 3/4 pound sea scallops
  • 12 uncooked large shrimp in shells
  • 8 medium whole fresh mushrooms, (about 6 ounces)
  • 8 cherry tomatoes
  • 1 medium zucchini, (about 1 inch in diameter), cut into 1-inch slices

Steps

  • 1
    Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat.
  • 2
    Mix lemon juice, oil, thyme, salt and pepper. Cut scallops in half if over 1 inch in diameter.
  • 3
    Thread scallops, shrimp, mushrooms, tomatoes and zucchini alternately on each of four 10-inch metal skewers. Brush with lemon juice mixture.
  • 4
    Grill uncovered 4 inches from medium heat 10 to 15 minutes, brushing frequently with lemon juice mixture and turning once, until scallops are white and shrimp are pink and firm.

  • The exact heat of the grill or coals, as well as the outside temperature and wind, can affect your grilling time. Keep a close eye on those shrimp and scallop skewers--they may be done before you know it!
  • For seafood kabobs, leaving a little space between the shrimp, scallops and vegetables will help your kabobs cook more evenly.
