Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Put the shrimp and tuna in a shallow dish. Beat the lemon and oil together with the cumin and coriander. Season with salt and pepper and pour over the seafood, turning the seafood to coat it. Put in the refrigerator to marinate 30 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Put 16 12-inch wooden skewers in water to soak.

  3. Step 3

    Saute the chorizo in a skillet until lightly browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside to cool. Cut in quarters.

  4. Step 4

    Preheat a grill. Holding two skewers about half an inch apart, thread each pair of skewers with a shrimp, a piece of pepper, a piece of tuna, a piece of chorizo, piece of tuna, a piece of pepper and a shrimp. Repeat, threading eight skewers.

  5. Step 5

    Grill the brochettes until the shrimp are cooked and lightly charred and the tuna is cooked on the outside but still rare within, about 10 minutes. Serve at once with lemon wedges.

Those shrimp will be way over cooked at ten minutes. I suggest grilling shrimp, tuna, and chorizo separately.

Be careful to not overcook the seafood. Shrimp takes way less time than Chorizo.
