Tips:
- Choose fresh and high-quality seafood. Look for shrimp and scallops that are plump and have a slight briny smell. Avoid any seafood that looks slimy or has an off odor.
- Use large skewers. This will help to keep the shrimp and scallops from falling off the skewers while cooking.
- Marinate the seafood. This will help to infuse it with flavor and make it more tender. You can use a simple marinade of olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs, or you can get creative and try a more complex marinade.
- Cook the seafood over medium heat. This will help to prevent it from overcooking and becoming tough.
- Serve the seafood immediately. This is when it will be at its best. You can serve it with a variety of sides, such as rice, vegetables, or salad.

Maple orange shrimp and scallop kebobs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout or party.
