Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 navel oranges
1 pound uncooked peeled deveined large shrimp, thawed if frozen
1 small red onion, cut in half
1 package (10 ounces) fresh spinach
3/4 cup orange juice
1/3 cup light sesame or olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 medium green onions, chopped (1/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Cut 2 of the oranges into 8 wedges each. Peel and section remaining 2 oranges; reserve sections. Mix all Orange Marinade and Dressing ingredients; reserve half for dressing. In shallow glass or plastic dish or heavy-duty resealable food-storage plastic bag, place shrimp and remaining marinade. Cover dish or seal bag and refrigerate 15 minutes.

  • Grill kabobs uncovered 4 to 6 inches from medium heat 6 to 8 minutes, turning frequently and brushing with reserved basting marinade, until shrimp are pink and firm. Discard any remaining basting marinade.
  • In large bowl, gently toss spinach, reserved orange sections, reserved thinly sliced onion and reserved dressing. Serve with kabobs.
