Turkey Skewers with Peach & Pimientos de Padron
August 31st, 2018 | main dishes
Grill skewers with little meat, but with lots of vegetables and flavor! Here, the little Spanish peppers play the first violin. The sweetness of the peach softens the pepper sharpness a little bit. The aroma of the bay leaves gives these midsummer BBQ skewers the ultimate kick. Simply delicious.
Pimientos de Padrón are small green peppers grown in Galicia/Spain. The small, sharp vitamin bombs grow in the vicinity of the small village Padrón. They are cooked and eaten as a whole. You can simply fry them as an appetizer in olive oil and serve sprinkled with coarse sea salt. Or place them effectively on grill skewers…

And the result is just fun!
