Instructions
- Soak bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes before using. Or you can grill shrimp directly with no skewers.
- Mix together olive oil, soy sauce and harissa paste in a mixing bowl.
- Add the shrimp to the bowl and mix until coated.
- You can cook straight away or leave to marinate the shrimp for between 30 minutes to 24 hours.
- Thread about 5 shrimp to each skewer (if using skewers)
- Preheat the grill (or charcoal grill) to medium heat, oil the grates and grill the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until opaque.
- Transfer grilled shrimp to a plate and set aside.
- Make harissa dressing by mixing all ingredients together.
- Assemble your salad and add shrimp to top.
Notes
- I recommend oiling the grill grates before turning the grill on so you don’t get burned.
- If choosing to use skewers, you can use bamboo or metal. Metal skewers are great for grilling because they transmit heat well.
- Using flat skewers is ideal for shrimp so they don’t twirl around the round skewer.
- The longer you marinate the shrimp, the more flavor they’ll have.
- It’s better to use the larger shrimp so they don’t fall between the grates while cooking and so they cook evenly since shrimp cook so quickly.
- Wait to toss the salad in the dressing until you’re ready to eat so the lettuce doesn’t start to wilt or get soggy.
