Pinchos De Frutas (Fruit Brochettes) image

Simple, healthy, and lovely dessert from Top Tour of Spain site posted for ZWT5. Thank you Linda.P chef#1844617 from Top Tour of Spain site for clarifying the brown sugar and cream amounts. Feel free to use whatever fruit you have on hand. Notice how you can grill it outside or under your broiler. No time was given for how long to grill it so think it might be 2 minutes?

PRAWN AND BACON BROCHETTES



Prawn and Bacon Brochettes image

The Spanish love bacon, which we cure and air-dry in the same way as our famous jamon. This combination of prawns and bacon is inspired and very popular, and can be found at most Tapas bar, as well as in many banquets and receptions. It is an ideal treat for your guests when having a party at home! Found on-line at Spain recipes and posting for ZWT5. Although this was found on a Spainish Recipe Site, prawns/shrimp are common in many areas of the world, especially in the tropical islands.

Time 20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 ounces bacon, thinly sliced (or jamon)
24 prawns, peeled (medium to large uncooked, headless)
black pepper, freshly ground to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 lemons, quartered

Steps:

  • Cut the bacon (or jamon, if using it) into pieces which will wrap generously round the prawns. Place the wrapped prawns down flat on a board and skewer them through the fattest part and the tail, making sure the jamón is firmly fixed. Season generously and drizzle with the oil.
  • On a high heat, griddle, grill or barbecue the prawn and bacon brochettes for 2-3 minutes on each side, so the jamón crisps up. Alternatively , roast in a hot oven (425ºF) on an oiled baking tray for 8-10 minutes. Squeeze over the juice of the lemon wedges and serve immediately.
