Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 4

16 pearl onions (about 1 inch in diameter)
1 1/4 cupsherb-garlic marinade
24 jumbo shrimp (about 1 1/2 pounds)
8 10-inch wooden skewers

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan of boiling water boil onions until tender, 3 to 4 minutes, and drain in a colander. When onions are just cool enough to handle, peel, leaving root ends intact. While onions are still warm, in a bowl stir together with 1/4 cup marinade. Marinate onions, covered and chilled, stirring occasionally, 1 day.
  • If desired, shell shrimp (see note, above). In a large heavy-duty sealable plastic bag combine shrimp with 3/4 cup marinade and seal bag, pressing out excess air. Marinate shrimp, chilled, at least 1 hour and up to 4. Prepare grill. Soak skewers in warm water 30 minutes.
  • Drain shrimp, discarding marinade. In a sieve set over a bowl drain onions and reserve marinade for basting. Thread 3 shrimp and 2 onions, alternating shrimp with onions, onto skewers. Kebabs may be assembled 1 hour ahead and chilled, covered.
  • Grill kebabs on a lightly oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals, basting with reserved marinade and turning them occasionally, until just cooked through, about 3 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, broil kebabs under a preheated broiler 2 to 3 inches from heat about 2 1/2 minutes on each side.) Drizzle kebabs with remaining 1/4 cup marinade.

I've made these kebabs several times now and they are always a hit at parties. The shrimp are so juicy and flavorful, and the onions add a nice sweetness. I like to serve them with a side of tzatziki sauce.

These kebabs were a bit dry. I think I would try using a different marinade next time.

These kebabs were a little bland for my taste. I think I would add more spices to the marinade next time.

These kebabs were easy to make and turned out great! I used wooden skewers and grilled them over medium heat for about 10 minutes per side. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and the onions were tender and flavorful.
