Grilled Strawberry Kebabs With Lemon Mint Sauce Food

GRILLED STRAWBERRY KEBABS WITH LEMON-MINT SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high and scrape it clean with a grill brush.
• While the grill preheats, thread the strawberries onto the skewers, piercing each strawberry with 2 skewers and making a total of 4 kebabs with 6 strawberries on each (double-skewering the strawberries will make them easier to turn). In a cup, combine the oil and 2 tablespoons of the maple syrup. Brush the syrup mixture over the strawberries.
• In a small bowl, combine the mint, lemon zest and juice and remaining 2 tablespoons of maple syrup.
• Grill the strawberries until they are softened and have grill marks, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve the strawberries drizzled with the lemon-mint sauce.
