Shrimp skewers with garlic dressing topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 450 g large shrimp (about 40 pcs.), peeled and deveined, remove tails
- 1 cup garlic salad dressing
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Rapeseed oil, for grilling
- 150 g of arugula
- 2 plum tomatoes, diced
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges
- Special equipment: bamboo skewers 20 cm – 25 cm long, soak in water for 30 minutes.
Preparation:
- Thread the shrimp onto skewers in two places – at the neck and at the tail. If you compare the shrimp to a "C" shape, the skewers should pass through the top and bottom of the "C." Each skewer should hold 5 shrimp. Place the skewers in a baking dish (23 cm x 33 cm), lightly salt and pepper.
- In a medium bowl, combine garlic dressing, lemon juice, and Italian seasoning. Pour off about 3 tablespoons of the mixture. Pour the remaining dressing over the shrimp and brush it on evenly. Refrigerate for 5 minutes, or up to 30 minutes.
- Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- Wipe the grill grate with an oiled paper towel. Place the shrimp skewers on the grate and close the grill. Grill until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
- While the shrimp are grilling, combine the arugula and tomatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with the reserved dressing, season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine. Divide among 4 plates. Place 2 shrimp skewers on each plate. Serve with a lemon wedge.
