A popular seafood restaurant chain in our area has a fairly new item (I think) on their menu called Maple-glazed Chicken and Shrimp. Tonight I did my own version of it on the Weber kettle.
Started with 16-20 ct. jumbo shrimp and some boneless, skinless thighs. Seasoned everything with Kosher salt, black pepper, and then a 50/50 mixture of onion powder and garlic powder. Let 'em sit in the fridge for a while. Thighs were then cut in half and skewered and shrimp was skewered as well.
Recipe for the glaze can be found here. Its a mixture of pure maple syrup, soy sauce, lemon juice, white sugar, and dried cherries.
Then, on the grill they go
Batteries on my camera died so had to switch to cell phone camera
Shrimp done atop brown rice and glazed
Jim-Lampe style carrots
My plate
How was it?
It was good. Tonya said it was better than the restaurant version. The glaze has lots of sugar and burns very easily on the grill so I just cooked everything and then glazed it when I took it off. I only made half the glaze the recipe calls for too and it was plenty.
I'll be making this again for sure!
Thanks for looking!
