Prawn Chorizo & Ciabatta Skewers

No ratings yet

The spicy oil from the chorizo soaks into the bread, so it grills up to be deliciously crisp and tasty. Keep bread cubes fairly generous so they will be less likely to fall off the skewers.

Ingredients

6 thick slices ciabatta
2 tablespoons olive oil
7 ounces raw peeled shrimp
4.5 ounces dried chorizo, cut into 1/4-inch discs
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

To serve:

Handful of flat-leaf parsley, chopped
1 lemon, quartered

Instructions

Cut bread into cubes a similar size to diameter of the chorizo and put in a bowl. Drizzle in olive oil. Add prawns (shrimp) and chorizo and a good grind of salt and pepper, then toss to mix. Thread onto skewers, alternating between bread, prawns and chorizo.
Lay skewers directly over the fire and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, turning regularly, until prawns are pink and cooked through and bread is crisp. If the bread is catching too quickly, move skewers slightly farther away from the fire to cook more gently.
To serve, scatter over the parsley and squeeze over the lemon. Eat while hot.
