Directions
Halve any large scallops. Place scallops and shrimp in a plastic bag set in a deep bowl.
For marinade:
Combine orange peel, orange juice, soy sauce, gingeroot, garlic, and red pepper. Pour over seafood. Seal bag. Marinate in the refrigerator 30 minutes. Drain, reserving marinade.
To make kabobs:
If using fresh pea pods, cook in boiling water about 2 minutes; drain. Or, thaw and drain frozen pea pods.
Wrap 1 pea pod around each shrimp. Thread pea pods and shrimp onto four 10-12" skewers alternately with scallops and orange wedges.
Grill kabobs on an uncovered grill directly over medium-hot coals for 5 minutes. Turn and brush with marinade. Grill 5 to 7 minutes more or until shrimp turn pink and scallops are opaque. Brush occasionally with marinade.
Broiler Directions:
Place kabobs on the unheated rack of a broiler pan. Broil 4" from the heat for 4 minutes.
Turn and broil 4 to 6 minutes more or until shrimp turn pink and scallops are opaque. Brush occasionally with marinade.
