VEGETABLE (OR SHRIMP) SATAY SKEWERS



Vegetable (or Shrimp) Satay Skewers image

Not only a great meal, shrimp satay is fun finger food and a super addition to any party tray. Use leftover peanut sauce, thickened with tangy black bean sauce and livened up with hot sauce and you've got a great dip for skewered shrimp. The sauce is perfect with vegetables too. I like to serve this dish with Asian noodles or rice and snap peas on the side.

  • Marinate the shrimp in a flavorful combination of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs. This will help to tenderize the shrimp and infuse them with flavor.
  • Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using. This will help to prevent them from burning on the grill.
