By Derrick Riches, About.com

The scallops and shrimp really absorb the sweetness and spiciness of the marinade. You can serve with grilled pineapple rings on top freshly made rice.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 8 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 pounds sea scallops
  • 1 pound shrimp, shelled and deveined
  • For marinade:
  • 1/2 crushed pineapple
  • 1/3 cup chili sauce
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • salt to taste
  • skewers

Preparation:

Preheat grill for medium-high heat. Combine marinade ingredients in a large bowl. Add peeled shrimp and scallops, coat well, and allow to marinade for 5-10 minutes. If using wooden skewers, make sure to pre-soak them for at least one hour before placing on the grill. Alternate scallops and shrimp on skewers; reserve marinade. Place onto grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side. Brush with marinade throughout cooking process.
