Lemon-Herb Shrimp Skewers with Quinoa
Succulent shrimp and crisp vegetables grilled on skewers with a bright lemon-herb marinade, served over a bed of fluffy, protein-rich quinoa.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Large shrimp
0.25 cup Dry quinoa
0.5 cup Water
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 medium Lemon
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Dried oregano
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.5 cup Zucchini
0.5 cup Red bell pepper
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a small saucepan, combine quinoa and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until fluffy.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon zest, juice from the lemon, minced garlic, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Add the peeled and deveined shrimp, zucchini rounds, and bell pepper chunks to the bowl. Toss thoroughly to coat and let marinate for 10 minutes.
Thread the marinated shrimp and vegetables onto skewers, alternating between the shrimp and the colorful produce.
Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Cook the skewers for 2-3 minutes per side until the shrimp is opaque and slightly charred.
Serve the warm skewers over the cooked quinoa and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
