GARLIC SHRIMP BROCHETTES



Garlic Shrimp Brochettes image

This garlicky green sauce is a good match for shrimp, which are threaded onto skewers and grilled - preferably outdoors, over hot coals, though this recipe also works fine on a stovetop in a cast-iron pan, or under the broiler. The resulting brochettes, which are small (about 2 ounces each), are perfect party food. Threading each piece of meat onto two skewers, rather than one, keeps the meat from twirling and makes it easier to grill. (If you're using bamboo skewers, soak them in warm water for 15 minutes, so they won't catch fire.)

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 skewers

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound large shrimp (preferably wild), peeled and deveined
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, more for seasoning
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper, more for seasoning
6 garlic cloves, smashed to a paste
1 cup basil leaves, loosely packed
1 cup parsley leaves, loosely packed
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 cup olive oil
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Season shrimp lightly on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • To skewer, lay shrimp flat on cutting board. Thread shrimp onto two skewers spaced equidistant from center; do this first with one skewer, then the other. Put two or three shrimp onto each set of skewers, for eight brochettes total.
  • In a blender or food processor, put 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, the garlic, the basil, the parsley, the red pepper and the zest. Pulse to coarsely grind ingredients. Add oil; blend to a rough sauce.
  • Lay brochettes on a tray in one layer. Spoon 8 tablespoons green mixture over shrimp and spread to cover evenly. (Save remaining sauce.) Leave at room temperature for 1 hour, or refrigerate several hours, then bring to room temperature.
  • Grill brochettes over medium-hot fire for about 3 minutes per side. Serve with lemon wedges and reserved green sauce.

PAPPASITO'S BROCHETTE SHRIMP - COPYCAT RECIPE



Pappasito's Brochette Shrimp - Copycat Recipe image

When I was in college, I worked at Pappasito's as a waitress. I LOVED their brochette shrimp and I asked the cook for the recipe. He didn't give me the exact measurements, but he did give me the list of ingredients. I went home and played around with the quantities of the ingredeints and came up with what I think is very close to the real thing!

Categories     Seafood     Shellfish     Shrimp

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds large shrimp - peeled, deveined and butterflied
1 (8 ounce) package Monterey Jack cheese, sliced
3 fresh jalapeno peppers, seeded and julienned
1 pound bacon, cut into thirds
1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning, or to taste
skewers

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill for high heat. Soak skewers in water.
  • Place a strip of jalapeno into the opening of butterflied shrimp. Wrap with a piece of the bacon, and thread onto skewers so that the shrimp is pierced once through the head, and once through the tail, and bacon is secure. You can usually fit about 6 shrimp on a skewer. Make sure there is a little space between the shrimp, this will help the bacon cook better. Season both sides of the shrimp generously with Cajun seasoning.
  • Lightly oil the grill grate. Place shrimp skewers on the grill, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on one side. Turn, and place slices of cheese over the shrimp. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, until bacon is browned, and cheese is melted.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best results. Fresh shrimp, succulent scallops, and tender chicken are all great choices.
  • Don't overcook the seafood. It should be cooked through but still tender and juicy.
  • Serve the brochettes immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. A simple lemon-herb butter sauce or a zesty chimichurri sauce are both great options.
  • If you're using wooden skewers, be sure to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent them from burning.
  • You can also cook the brochettes in a grill pan or on a stovetop grill if you don't have a barbecue.
  • For a healthier option, you can bake the brochettes in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through.
