A quick dip in a yogurt-based marinade lends authentic Indian flavour to grilled shrimp skewers. This would also be equally delicious with scallops or cubed chicken breast.

Ingredients

Plain lowfat Greek yogurt

⅓ cup(s), or plain non fat Greek yogurt

Kosher salt

1½ tsp(s)

Fresh lemon juice

1½ tsp(s)

Olive oil

½ tsp(s)

Curry powder

1 tsp(s)

Ground cumin

1 tsp(s)

Ground coriander

1 tsp(s)

Granulated garlic

1 tsp(s)

Ground ginger

½ tsp(s)

Uncooked shrimp

1 pound(s), large, peeled and deveined

Olive oil cooking spray

1 spray(s)

Cilantro

2 tbsp(s), fresh, chopped

Instructions

  1. Combine yogurt, salt, lemon juice, oil, curry powder, cumin, coriander, garlic and ginger in a large bowl; add shrimp and toss to coat. Marinate for 15 minutes at room temperature or covered, up to 2 hours in refrigerator.
  2. Divide shrimp among 4 metal or wooden skewers (if using wooden skewers, make sure to soak them for 20 minutes before use).
  3. Off heat, coat a grill or grill pan with cooking spray. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Grill skewers until shrimp are cooked through (opaque) and slightly firm, flipping once, about 2 to 4 minutes per side. Serve garnished with cilantro.
