Seafood kebabs with peppers

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Main Courses
Seafood kebabs (skewers) are the essence of Mediterranean summers: the salty freshness of the sea meets the smoky aroma of the grill. The secret lies in the marination and cooking time: prawns and squid cook in moments, and if overcooked, they become rubbery. The colourful peppers and onions not only harmonise in flavour but complement the delicate taste of the seafood with their sweetness. A light, elegant dish that evokes seaside sunsets.

Instructions

1 ✓

If using wooden skewers, soak them in cold water.

Tip: Wet wood won't burn on the hot grate.
2 ✓

Prepare the marinade: mix the olive oil, crushed garlic, lemon juice, spices, salt, and pepper in a bowl.

Tip: Use only a little lemon juice in the marinade, as the acid 'cooks' (denatures) the protein if left too long.
3 ✓

Wash the seafood and pat dry. Toss in the marinade and let sit for 15 minutes in the fridge.

Tip: A dry surface is important for good browning (Maillard reaction).
4 ✓

Cut the onion and peppers into approx. 2-3 cm cubes (same size as the prawns).

Tip: Uniform size ensures every element of the skewer touches the grill grate.
5 ✓

Thread seafood and vegetables alternately onto the skewers. Don't crowd too tightly so heat reaches everywhere.

Tip: Loose arrangement helps even cooking.
6 ✓

Heat the grill pan or outdoor BBQ to medium-high. Grill skewers for 3-4 minutes per side until prawns turn pink and vegetables get a little char.

Tip: Don't overcook! Squid becomes chewy, prawns dry out.
7 ✓

Serve immediately, sprinkled with fresh parsley and lemon wedges.

Tip: Fresh lemon juice just before eating highlights the taste of the sea.

Recipe FAQ

Why did the wooden skewer burn?
Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before use so they don't catch fire on the grill.
Can I use frozen seafood?
Yes, but defrost slowly in the fridge and thoroughly pat dry before marinating, otherwise they will steam, not grill.
