Honey Shrimp kabobs
Honey Shrimp kabobs are a treat for us. We especially like this recipe because the glaze is so flavorful, yet it doesn’t overpower the flavor of the shrimp. We enjoy the crisp, tender vegetables and pineapple to balance out the kabobs.
Equipment
- Gas Grill
- Skewers (See Notes)
- Knives
- Small saucepan
- Small bowl
- Cooking spray
Ingredients
- 8 Jumbo Cooked, peeled & deveined tail-off shrimp
- 3/4 Cup Pineapple chunks, drained
- 1/2 Red bell pepper , cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/2 Small Onion , cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/4 tsp Salt
Glaze Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp Honey
- 1 Tbsp Reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 1/2 Tbsp Lime juice
- 1 tsp Sriracha sauce
- 1 tsp Minced garlic
- 1/2 tsp Ginger paste
Instructions
- In a microwave-safe dish, add the cut vegetables and microwave for 2 minutes to ensure they cook before the shrimp are overdone.
- Evenly add the shrimp, vegetables, and fruit pieces to 4 skewers.
- Spray both sides of the kabobs with cooking spray to prevent sticking to the grill. Sprinkle one side of the kabobs with salt. Set aside.
- Add the remaining glaze ingredients to a small saucepan on medium heat. Stir and cook for 3-4 minutes. Don’t overcook, or this will result in something that no longer pours out of the pan. (Experience talking here).
- Remove from the heat, pour into a small bowl, and let cool.
- Preheat the grill to low, about 250℉.
- Place skewers on the grill, shut the lid, and cook for 2-3 minutes. Flip the skewers and brush half the glaze on everything.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes. Flip and add the remaining glaze to the kabobs. We are only cooking the vegetables; the shrimp and pineapple only need to be heated.
Notes
If using wooden skewers, soak in water for 1 hour before grilling.
We like to serve this with our Small Batch “Baked” Beans.
