1

Prep the seafood and marinate

Start by choosing your favorite seafood for skewering. Thread shrimps, scallops, and chunks of firm fish onto wooden or metal skewers. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Pour the marinade over the skewered seafood, making sure they're well-coated. Allow the flavors to mingle by refrigerating for at least 30 minutes.

2

Preheat the grill

Fire up the grill to medium-high heat. This will give your seafood a delicious char and smoky flavor.

3

Grill the skewers

Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the seafood is opaque and lightly charred. Be careful not to overcook, as seafood can become tough if left on the grill for too long.

Serve and enjoy

Carefully remove the skewers from the grill and transfer them to a platter. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top and sprinkle with chopped herbs, like parsley or cilantro. Serve hot and enjoy the burst of flavors!
