Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Shrimp (large, peeled and deveined)
- 8 pieces Scallops
- 1 pound Salmon filet (cut into 2-inch chunks)
- 5 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Parsley (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon Thyme leaves (fresh)
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 6 pieces Wooden skewers (soaked in water for at least 30 minutes)
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, thyme leaves, paprika, salt, and black pepper to form the marinade.
Add the shrimp, scallops, and salmon chunks to the marinade. Toss gently to coat evenly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C). Clean and oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Thread the marinated shrimp, scallops, and salmon chunks onto the skewers, alternating the seafood pieces for an even mix. Avoid overcrowding the skewers.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque, the scallops are slightly firm, and the salmon has grill marks and is cooked through.
Carefully remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for 2 minutes.
Serve the seafood skewers immediately with a side of fresh salad, rice, or grilled vegetables for a complete meal. Optional: Garnish with extra parsley or a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.
