Fiery Chili Cheese Shrimp & Corn Skewers

Method

1. 1

   Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill. While they soak, gently pat the shrimp dry with paper towels.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, toss the cleaned shrimp with a generous drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Allow them to marinate briefly while you prepare the other components.

3. 3

   If using whole cobs, carefully slice the sweet corn into thick, substantial rounds or chunks, about 1-inch thick, for easy skewering. If using canned kernels, ensure they are thoroughly drained.

4. 4

   Artfully thread the marinated shrimp and corn chunks alternately onto the soaked wooden skewers, making sure not to overcrowd them for even cooking. Aim for 3-4 shrimp and corn pieces per skewer.

5. 5

   Preheat your outdoor grill or indoor grill pan to a medium-high heat. Lightly brush the grill grates with a bit of olive oil to prevent sticking.

6. 6

   Carefully place the Chili Cheese Toasties directly on the preheated grill. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side, until they achieve a beautiful golden-brown color and the chili cheese filling is wonderfully bubbly and melted. Remove and let cool slightly.

7. 7

   Next, arrange the shrimp and corn skewers on the hot grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until the shrimp transform into an opaque pink with enticing char marks, and the corn is tender-crisp with gorgeous grill lines.

8. 8

   While the skewers are grilling to perfection, take your slightly cooled grilled Chili Cheese Toasties and roughly chop them into enticing, bite-sized 'croutons.'

9. 9

   Once cooked, transfer the hot, smoky skewers to a large serving platter. Generously scatter the warm, crunchy chili cheese croutons over and around the skewers, adding a delightful texture and flavor burst.
