A delightful Mediterranean-inspired recipe featuring a mix of seafood and vegetables, perfect for grilling and enjoying with family and friends.
Combine the olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, salt, pepper, and oregano in a mixing bowl.
Whisk the marinade thoroughly to ensure the flavors are well combined.
Add the shrimp, scallops, zucchini slices, bell pepper pieces, and onion chunks to the marinade, mixing to coat evenly.
Let the ingredients marinate for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Thread the marinated shrimp, scallops, and vegetables onto skewers, alternating for a colorful presentation.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water beforehand to prevent burning.
Preheat the grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grates.
Ensure the grill is clean to prevent sticking.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 6-8 minutes, turning halfway through and basting with any remaining marinade.
Cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque, and the scallops are firm.
Serve the skewers on a platter with lemon wedges for garnish.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the skewers for a burst of flavor.
