The concept of skewering and grilling food, known as 'kabob,' has ancient roots, with evidence found in various cultures throughout the Middle East, Asia, and the Mediterranean. Over time, different regions adapted the technique using local ingredients and spices, leading to the diverse range of kabob styles we see today. Seafood kabobs, specifically, gained popularity in coastal regions where shrimp and other seafood were readily available.

The Shrimp Kabob Plate offers a balance of savory, smoky, and slightly sweet flavors. The shrimp is typically marinated in herbs, spices, and citrus, then grilled to perfection, imparting a charry smokiness. The grilled vegetables provide a contrasting sweetness and earthy notes, while the rice offers a neutral base.
The dominant flavor profile comes from the grilled shrimp, which often features a marinade of olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, oregano, and paprika. The grilled vegetables, such as bell peppers, onions, zucchini, and tomatoes, develop a caramelized sweetness. The rice, usually white rice or sometimes saffron rice, provides a mild, starchy complement to the other components.

Marinade Magic
Marinate the shrimp for at least 30 minutes (but no more than 2 hours) to allow the flavors to penetrate without making the shrimp mushy. A simple marinade of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs works wonders.
Vegetable Variety
Choose a variety of colorful vegetables with different textures and flavors to create a visually appealing and balanced kabob. Bell peppers, onions, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, and mushrooms are all excellent choices.
Prevent Sticking
Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent them from burning. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent the shrimp and vegetables from sticking.
Cooking Time
Be careful not to overcook the shrimp, as it can become rubbery. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp turns pink and opaque.
