âI love shrimp!â says Traci K Wynne, Denver, Pennsylvania. âThrow in some scallops and I'm in heaven. We serve these skewers with some grilled steaks and a garden salad. I'm hungry just thinking about it!â Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter |
1/2 teaspoon chili powder |
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/8 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/8 teaspoon each white pepper, cayenne pepper and black pepper |
18 uncooked large shrimp (about 3/4 pound) |
12 sea scallops (1-1/2 pounds) |
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, melt butter. Stir in seasonings; set aside and keep warm. Peel and devein shrimp, leaving tails on. On six metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread shrimp and scallops.
2. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill seafood, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 3-5 minutes on each side or until shrimp turn pink and scallops are firm and opaque, basting occasionally with butter mixture.
