Seafood Skewers

Recipe by Globe Scoffers

These delicious seafood skewers are great on the BBQ or chargrilled in the kitchen - whatever the weather!

Ingredients

• 16 raw king prawns
• 8 scallops
• 12 baby squid
• 1 small salmon fillet (cut into small chunks )
• 1 zest and juice of lemon
• 2 tbsp olive oil (good quality )
• 2 handfuls rocket
• 1 yellow pepper (cut into chunks)
• 1 courgette (sliced length ways)
• 1 red onion (cut into quarters)
• 1 aubergine (sliced into rounds)
• 1 tbsp rapeseed oil

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 160°C / 140°C fan / gas mark 3. If using wooden skewers, soak them in cold water whilst preparing everything else. Prepare your seafood and place onto a plate, then squeeze over lemon and drizzle with oil. Season with a little salt and pepper. Cover and put in the fridge.
2. Slice all your veg and brush each side with a little oil. Place all the veg on a griddle pan turn after a minute or two until they have some colour. You might have to do this in batches if your pan is too small. When all your vegetables are done place into a baking dish and season with salt and pepper, then place into the oven for 15-20 minutes
3. Assemble your seafood onto the skewers. TIP: Fold the salmon and prawns to puncture twice with the skewer. This should make them more secure.
4. Once you have assembled your skewers, place them onto a hot griddle pan. They should take about 5-7 minutes to cook, you will soon start to see the seafood to change colour.
5. When your seafood skewers are cooked place them onto a bed of rocket and serve with the chargrilled vegetables. Enjoy with an Italian spritz.
