Ingredients

  • Kroger® Extra Large Raw Shrimp Peeled and Deveined Tail Off (sale) 12 oz shrimp, thawed if frozen $4.49
  • Organic Broccoli Bunch 1/2–1 bunch broccoli (~12 oz), cut into florets $3.19
  • Greenhouse Grown Fresh Tri-Color Peppers - 6 ct 2 bell peppers, sliced $6.00
  • Jumbo Yellow Onion 1/2 onion, thick-sliced $0.99/lb
  • Fresh Organic Limes - Each 1 lime (zest + juice) $0.99 each
  • Olive oil 2 tbsp, divided
  • Chili powder 1 tsp
  • Smoked paprika 1 tsp
  • Ground cumin 1/2 tsp
  • Kosher salt 1 tsp, divided (to taste)
  • Black pepper 1/2 tsp
  • Honey (optional) 1 tsp (for a sweet-smoky glaze)

Instructions

  1. Prep the grill: Heat grill to medium-high (about 400–450°F). If you have a grill basket or skewers, set them out.
  2. Prep shrimp: Pat dry 12 oz shrimp. Toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp chili powder, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp cumin, 1/2 tsp kosher salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, zest of 1 lime, and 1 tsp honey (optional).
  3. Prep vegetables: Cut ~12 oz broccoli into florets. Slice 2 bell peppers and 1/2 onion into thick strips. Toss veggies with 1 tbsp olive oil and 1/2 tsp kosher salt.
  4. Grill vegetables first: Grill broccoli and pepper/onion mix (in a basket or directly on grates) until charred-tender, turning occasionally—broccoli 8–12 minutes, peppers/onions 6–10 minutes.
  5. Grill shrimp: Place shrimp on skewers or in a basket. Grill until just opaque and lightly charred, about 2–3 minutes per side.
  6. Finish with lime: Squeeze juice of 1 lime over the shrimp and vegetables right off the grill. Taste and add a pinch more salt if needed.
  7. Serve: Divide grilled veggies between two plates and top with the grilled shrimp. (Optional: serve with warmed tortillas or rice if you want extra carbs.)

Health notes: ~550–700 kcal per serving (depends on oil and any rice/tortillas you add). Very high protein and veggie-forward; great for a lower-carb dinner.

Drink pairing: Grilled shrimp and a touch of citrus/smoke pair beautifully with zippy whites or a very light red. - Best styles: Albariño; Sauvignon Blanc; dry rosé - Georgia-friendly pick: Chateau Elan Rosé (GA) or a crisp Spanish Albariño.
