Shrimp and Chorizo Kabobs image

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds fresh or frozen jumbo shrimp (about 40 shrimp total)
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons ground ancho chile pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground chipotle chile pepper
3 cloves garlic, minced
12 ounces cooked smoked chorizo sausage or spicy cooked smoked sausage, cut into 1/2-inch slices (about 40 slices)

Steps:

  • Thaw shrimp, if frozen. Peel and devein shrimp. Rinse shrimp; pat dry with paper towels. In a large bowl combine olive oil, ancho chile pepper, salt, chipotle chile pepper, and garlic. Mix well. Add shrimp; toss to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap; marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes (do not marinate any longer).
  • Drain shrimp, discarding marinade. Tuck one slice of chorizo into the crook of one shrimp and thread onto a 12-inch skewer,* making sure the skewer goes through one side of the shrimp, the chorizo, and the other side of the shrimp. Repeat with the remaining chorizo and the remaining shrimp, dividing ingredients evenly among eight skewers.
  • For a charcoal grill, grill skewers on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium-hot coals for 4 to 6 minutes or until shrimp are opaque, turning once halfway through grilling. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Add skewers to grill rack. Cover and grill as above.)

These kabobs were a bit dry. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The marinade didn't seem to do much for the shrimp or chorizo.

I'm not a fan of seafood, but these kabobs were surprisingly good. The chorizo adds a nice flavor.

The shrimp were overcooked and the chorizo was too spicy. I won't be making this recipe again.

These kabobs were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add more spices next time.

These kabobs are amazing! The shrimp and chorizo are cooked perfectly, and the marinade is out of this world. I will definitely be making these again.

I love this recipe! It's simple to follow, and the kabobs always turn out delicious. I usually double the marinade recipe so I have extra for basting.

This recipe is a keeper! The kabobs are juicy and flavorful, and the marinade is amazing. I served them with rice and grilled veggies, and it was a perfect meal.

So easy to make and SO good! I used pre-cooked shrimp to save time, and it worked out great. The chorizo adds a nice kick, and the veggies are perfectly cooked.
