Grilled Mixed Seafood Platter

July 1, 2020 by zimmysnook Leave a Comment

Colourful platter of grilled seafood with corn, potatoes and shishito peppers.

Canada Day and/or July the 4th, what are you grilling to celebrate?
We’ve put together a grilled mixed seafood platter with corn, potatoes & shishito peppers.
The seafood is all grilled with a herb butter and the scallops were finished with hot Portuguese chouriço… absolutely delicious! 

Have a delicious day y’all!

INGREDIENTS
  • ½ cup (1 stick) butter
  • ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 ½ tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons fresh Italian parsley, finely chopped
  • 2 teaspoons fresh chives, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh tarragon, finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 lobster tails (5-6 oz/tail), cut in half lengthways
  • 8 scallops on the shell (10-20/lb size) – No shells? Use double foil shaped into shallow cups
  • 8 tablespoons hot Portuguese chouriço (or hot chorizo), diced to pea-size pieces
  • 16 wild caught shrimp, shell on (26-30/lb size)
  • Lemon wedges, chopped chives, chopped parsley, chopped parsley for serving
  • Skewers
PREPERATION

Heat grill to 450°F

Melt butter, with oil in a small saucepan over medium heat, add garlic, sauté until fragrant (4-5 minutes). Add lemon juice, parsley, chives, tarragon, pepper & salt, stir to combine. Remove ½ cup of the sauce for cooking and reserve the rest in the saucepan for serving.

Place diced chouriço in a small dry non-stick frypan and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until crisp (5-7 minutes)

Skewer lobster tails lengthways to keep them from curling while cooking. Skewers shrimp to make flipping more efficient.

Place lobster halves, flesh side down, on grill and cook for 2 minutes. Flip lobster over and spoon ½ tablespoon of the butter sauce over each half tail; add the shrimp skewers and brush with butter sauce: add the scallops on the shells and spoon ½ tablespoon of the butter sauce over each scallop (allowing it to pool in the shell) continue grilling 5-8 minutes, flipping the shrimp halfway through and brushing with more butter sauce. Cook until lobster meat is opaque & tender (135°F internal temperature), shrimp shell is a pink color and the meat inside is white/opaque, scallop flesh is milky white or opaque and tender (120°F-125°F internal temperature, as they will continue to cook in the hot butter sauce while plating and serving).

Sprinkle each scallop with ½ tablespoon of crispy chouriço and a little of the fresh herbs.

Serve immediately with warm reserved butter sauce, lemon wedges and chopped herbs.

This Grilled Mixed Seafood Platter recipe was created in partnership with Weber Grills Canada however, opinions in this post are my own.

Cioppino (Fisherman’s Stew). After dropping off Cioppino (Fisherman’s Stew).
After dropping off the chicken pot pie at my mother-in-law’s, we stopped by the fish market to get some wild shrimp, wild squid & organic mussels. I had made lobster stock 2 weeks ago and pulled it out of the freezer for tonight’s dinner.
I used the recipe from my blog: zimmysnook.ca changing out the clams for mussels.

Quiet lockdown Saturday dinner. If you want to up Quiet lockdown Saturday dinner.
If you want to up your charcuterie/cheese/mezze board offering, try warming a selection of olives in evoo with orange (or clementine) peel, fresh rosemary, pepper flakes and s&p. Mix everything in an 8.5” skillet and heat over medium heat until the oil begins to sizzle. Lower the heat and sauté for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the olives are fragrant and heated through. Serve warm right from the skillet or transfer to a serving bowl.

A very large roaster chicken, cooked on the rotiss A very large roaster chicken, cooked on the rotisserie.
I’ve been wanting to test out the rotisserie on my new @HestanHome grill, so I picked up this very large, local chicken, dry rubbed it and let it sit in the fridge overnight.
Then simply cooked it on low and let nature take its course.

The rotisserie system is an ultra quiet, concealed, motorized chain driven system, which can hold up to 50 pounds, and always stays perfectly balanced. Incredible design! 👍👍

Since I don’t have stone bowls, we assembled & served ours in a pan, so I could crisp up the rice on the bottom, before mixing it in individual bowls and digging in!

Grilled local French centre-cut pork chops, served Grilled local French centre-cut pork chops, served alongside bok choy with ginger, apples & soy and onion fried pierogi.
I decided to test the new @hestanhome grill’s sear burner. 
I started earlier with a couple of burgers for mom & dad and quickly learned that this burner gets freak’in hot! 🔥 
For these chops, I turned the burner to low and was blessed with crispy, delicious, charred edges and a beautiful blush interior.
Hope y’all had a delicious weekend!
