30 minutes
Seafood skewers in tequila and lime marinade are a refined dish that combines the freshness of the sea with the zest of citrus. Royal shrimp, fillets of perch and salmon gain vibrant flavor from the lime, tequila, and orange juice marinade. It harmoniously intertwines acidity, sweetness, and spicy notes of cilantro and green onion. The addition of pineapple and red pepper gives the skewers fruity freshness and a light sweetness, while green peas add contrasting texture. They are grilled to provide an appetizing aroma and caramelized crust. This dish is perfect for a summer outdoor dinner paired with a glass of chilled white wine or tequila. It offers a culinary journey sensation as if you were on the shores of the Mediterranean.
