Ingredients

  • Bamboo or metal grilling skewers
  • 1 pound large shrimp 16-20 count, peeled, deveined, and tails removed
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil  plus more for the grill
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 large peaches pitted and cut into large chunks

Instructions

  • If using bamboo skewers, soak in water for several hours prior to use.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the shrimp, garlic, basil, lemon juice, 3 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • Heat the grill to medium and oil the grates with olive oil.
  • If using bamboo skewers, remove them from the water. Remove the shrimp from the marinade. Thread shrimp onto skewers, alternating with peach chunks.
  • Transfer the skewers to the hot grill and grill for 2-3 minutes per side, until the shrimp are just opaque and the peaches are charred in spots. Serve warm with the steaks.
