Foodie Friday: 15 Sweet and Savory Skewers

 

Most of us have the grilling classics down - you know the standard fare --hot dogs, hamburgers, steaks. Why not shake up your grill game with something different? These skewers are what's for dinner this summer! 

Chicken Caprese Pesto Chicken Skewers
There really is nothing to dislike about this recipe ~  Chicken plus sweet in-season cherry tomatoes tossed up with basil pesto. Fresh and fabulous!

Sangria Marinated Grilled Shrimp Skewers
Oh my goodness! These sound delicious, and can be cooked up in a flash. The marinade is made of everything you put in Sangria like red wine, tangerines, key limes, orange liqueur, and honey. May have to make these this weekend.

Grilled Greek Lamb Skewers
A beautiful and unique recipe that combines protein with veggies, my favorite way to eat.

Steak Kabobs
I grew up having steak kabobs at least once a week. You begin by marinating the steak in a delicious concoction of soy and  Worcestershire sauces, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, garlic and a little brown sugar.Pretty much just like my Father made.

Swordfish Skewers With Lemon Garlic Sauce
This truly is a meal on a stick.  With onions, zucchini, small potatoes and fish, it is everything you need for a satisfying meal. If you can't find swordfish, halibut would do. 

Greek Chicken Kabobs
Oh these sound so good. Marinated and based with all the traditional Greek flavors with olive oil, oregano, lemon, garlic, and Greek Yogurt. Oompa!

Easy Grilled Brussels Sprouts
The vegetarians and the carnivores will love this unexpected skewer. They are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Veggie perfection!

Pork & Pineapple Kabobs
This recipe is all about choosing an excellent thick pork chop, and then marinating it. The pineapple adds a wonderful sweetness.

Salmon Bites With Wasabi Mayo
We just had the best Copper River Salmon this evening. How lucky am I that at our weekly Farmer's Market, they sell fresh seafood right off the boat? Wether you eat this as a bite before dinner, or as your main course, it couldn't be more delicious.

Antipasta Kabobs
Here is a "go to" party appetizer that will wow your guests. Make these ahead and then drizzle with a basil pesto sauce.

Steak Kabobs With Chimichurri Sauce
Beef and Chimichurri are a match made in heaven. I need to make it more often. The sauce adds a zesty brightness to the steak.

Grilled Scallops with Creamed Corn
The large scallops have been treated to a dry rub made with a very interesting mix of spices. I am sure that is why this recipe is so good. I can hardly wait until July to make the creamed corn. Yum!

Spicy Beer BBQ Chicken Skewers with Avocado Corn and Feta Salsa
This recipe looks and sounds so very good! Just promise me that you will go to the trouble to make the barbecue sauce yourself. Ditch the extra ingredients that you can't pronounce in the bottle. Half Baked Harvest
Strawberry Brownie Kabobs
I couldn't leave you without a dessert option. These are so simple to make and make a pretty presentation. Get the kids to help. Sweet Tooth
