Light, fresh, and packed with protein, this Grilled Seafood recipe is the ultimate low-effort meal that hits the spot without compromising your waistline.
0 Note: add more oil for the Blackstone (or pan) as needed. Do not cook for more than 1-2 minutes as the seafood can become rubbery if overcooked.
1 Using paper towels, pat dry the calamari and shrimp.
2 Add the calamari and shrimp to a bowl with the garlic, lemon zest, lime zest, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and add the dill. Mix well. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for about 1 hour (optional).
3 Heat up the Blackstone (griddle or pan), and add a touch of oil. Cook the shrimp first for 1-2 min on each side, making sure to space them apart.
4 Note: if you overcrowd the seafood, it will steam. Spacing the seafood apart will give you browning vs steaming.
5 Take the shrimp off the heat and add the calamari. The calamari will curl up FAST so don’t overcook it; about 30 seconds on each side is all you need. Serve and enjoy!
