These are great for BBQs! You can use an indoor grill pan or broil them, too, so you can have them all year round. :) Ingredients:
1/3 cup pineapple juice |
1/4 cup lemon juice |
1/4 cup orange juice |
1 tablespoon soy sauce |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
2 teaspoons grated orange rind |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne, to taste (optional) |
1 lb large raw shrimp, peeled and de-veined |
1/2 lb sea scallops |
1 cup melon, chunks or balls (honeydew, cantelope, etc) |
1 cup pineapple chunk |
1 large ripe avocado, peeled, seeded and chunked |
bamboo skewer |
Directions:
1. In large bowl or Ziploc plastic bag combine the fruit juices, soy, oil, sugar, rind, cinnamon, and cayenne (if using); add the shrimp, scallops, melon, and pineapple.
2. Cover (or Ziploc) and marinate in refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
3. Soak bamboo skewers in water for 5-10 minutes.
4. Place shrimp, scallops, melon, pineapple, and avocado on skewers.
5. Grill or broil for 3 to 6 minutes or until shrimp are pink and scallops are opaque (be careful not to overcook!), basting frequently with marinade.
6. Makes 6-8 skewers, serving 2-4 (depending on how hungry you are).
