Shrimp and Chorizo Skewers Recipe

We took two classic summer grilling favorites – shrimp AND chorizo – and combined them under the spicy, savory blend of sriracha and garlic.

 

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds fresh or frozen shrimp
  • 2 pounds chorizo sausage in natural casing
  • 8 skewers
  • 3 tablespoons Weber ® Garlic Sriracha Seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • Juice of 1 lemon

Directions

  1. If using frozen shrimp, fully defrost. Make sure all shrimp have been de-shelled and de-veined, but leave tails intact.
  2. Slice chorizo into 1/2 inch rounds, about the same thickness as the shrimp.
  3. In a bowl, combine the shrimp, sausage, oil, lemon juice, and half of the seasoning – mix well to combine.
  4. Place a round of chorizo inside the natural “C” curve of the shrimp, thread onto skewers – note if using wooden skewers, soak for 15 minutes in water and drain to prevent burning.
  5. Season skewers with remaining seasoning and place on a medium-high grill.
  6. Cook for 3-5 minutes per side, until cooked through.
