Grilled Strawberry Kebabs with Lemon-Mint Sauce image

Serve these plump, smoky berries on a rimmed platter or bowl to capture all their delicious juices. Mixed with the lemon-mint sauce, they are worthy enough to drizzle over yogurt or maybe even a grilled piece of pound cake.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

24 ripe medium strawberries, hulled (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/4 cup loosely packed mint leaves, torn
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest plus 3 tablespoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high and scrape it clean with a grill brush.
  • While the grill preheats, thread the strawberries onto the skewers, piercing each strawberry with 2 skewers and making a total of 4 kebabs with 6 strawberries on each (double-skewering the strawberries will make them easier to turn). In a cup, combine the oil and 2 tablespoons of the maple syrup. Brush the syrup mixture over the strawberries.
  • In a small bowl, combine the mint, lemon zest and juice and remaining 2 tablespoons of maple syrup.
  • Grill the strawberries until they are softened and have grill marks, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve the strawberries drizzled with the lemon-mint sauce.

I love the way the grilled strawberries caramelize. It adds a delicious smoky flavor to the kebabs.

I'm not a big fan of strawberries, but I actually really enjoyed these kebabs. The lemon-mint sauce helped to balance out the sweetness of the strawberries.

These kebabs are a great way to use up leftover strawberries. I always have a few extra strawberries in my fridge, so this recipe is perfect.

I was a bit skeptical about the lemon-mint sauce, but it was actually really good. It added a nice tanginess to the kebabs.
