Many thanks to\u00a0ELAG Products GmbH<\/a>\u00a0for sponsoring this recipe.Grilled coconut-lime shrimp skewers are a great addition to any summer BBQ. The prawns are first marinated to infuse them with a subtle coconut flavor and then threaded on skewers together with with chunks of sweet, tropical-tasting pineapple. These crowd-pleasing prawn skewers are super easy to prepare, and literally take minutes on the grill.<\/p>\n

Choosing shrimp for this recipe<\/h2>\n

Size \u2013<\/strong> This recipe uses fresh, large shrimp (black tiger prawns). Large shrimp remain more juicy on the grill, so is the way to go. If using frozen shrimp, then make sure they are completely thawed before adding it to the marinade. I also prefer to use wild-caught prawns versus farmed, as I find the farmed variety shrink quite a bit.<\/p>\n

Shell on versus peeled \u2013<\/strong> Deveined shrimp with the shells on are the most flavorful, tender and moist, however are a little more work to eat. Therefore, I like to use peeled and deveined shrimp for this skewer recipe.<\/p>\n

I like to use metal skewers, however for shrimp wooden skewers actually are better as the shrimp stays more solidly in place, rather than spinning around. Just make sure you soak wooden skewers beforehand when grilling with a gas or coal BBQ. The other trick is to make sure all the ingredients are touching, this also helps keep everything in place when flipping over the shrimp skewers.<\/p>\n

For the grilling, I like to use my electric glas ceramic indoor\/outdoor grill<\/a> from ELAG. It\u2019s the perfect alternative to a standard BBQ as it can be used all year round, indoors and outdoors. Plus it is super easy to clean while still giving you the summer grilling flavor and experience.<\/p>\n
