Arrange the shrimp skewers on the empty side of the grill. Grill for 2 minutes on each side; turn
the skewers so that the deveined edge of the shrimp is on the grill. Grill for an additional 30
seconds.
Transfer the grilled shrimp and vegetables to a serving platter, or 4 individual plates. Garnish with
lemon wedges, and serve.
*Cook’s Tip: When grilled, shrimp have a much better texture after a short period of brining. To
brine the shrimp, place 1 tablespoon each kosher salt and brown sugar in a medium bowl; add
one cup boiling water. Stir until salt and sugar are completely dissolved. Add 12 ice cubes and 1
cup cold water; stir to chill water. Once cold, add shrimp; brine for 30 to 60 minutes in the
refrigerator.

Soy, Ginger and Sesame Salmon
Makes 4 servings
1
tablespoon finely chopped ginger
2 teaspoons finely chopped
garlic (about 2 small cloves)
¼ cup low sodium soy sauce
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 /
3
cup extra virgin olive oil
1 pound salmon fillet
Place the ginger, garlic, soy sauce, pepper, sesame seeds, and brown sugar (all of the marinade
ingredients, except for the olive oil) into a small bowl; stir to combine. Slowly whisk in the olive
oil until mixture is completely emulsified. Lay the salmon in a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Pour the
marinade over the fish, being sure that it is fully coated. Let marinate, at room temperature, for
30 to 40 minutes.
Ten minutes before the salmon has fully marinated, preheat the Cuisinart

closed grill position to high.
Place the salmon on the bottom preheated grill plate. Close; grill for about 7 minutes, depending
on the thickness of the salmon.
Serve hot, or serve chilled over a mixed green salad.
