From Real Simple. Ingredients:
24 medium shrimp, shells on, deveined |
2 lemons, cut into small wedges |
3 yellow squash or 3 zucchini, ends trimmed |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 teaspoon kosher salt |
4 sprigs fresh basil |
16 bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes |
Directions:
1. Heat a broiler on high.
2. Place the shrimp and lemon wedges on 8 skewers, alternating them. Halve the squash or zucchini lengthwise, then cut them into 1-inch-thick slices. Divide the squash among the remaining 8 skewers. (If you don't have skewers, place the individual ingredients on a baking sheet.) Place the skewers on a foil-lined baking sheet. Brush the kebabs with the oil and season with the salt.
3. Broil, turning once, until the shrimp are cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes total. Transfer the shrimp-and-lemon skewers to a platter.
4. Continue to broil the squash until tender, 3 to 4 minutes more. Serve the shrimp and squash with the basil, torn into pieces if desired.
