Instructions

  1. Warm the olive oil for the marinade, but don`t let it get too hot. Add spices and herbs. The herbs and garlic shouldn`t take color.
  2. Halve the cherry tomatoes, alternately line up a shrimp, a pitted and peeled date and a halved cherry tomato on skewers approx. 25 cm long. Roll the skewers in the warm marinade and then let them steep for at least two hours, or even better overnight.
  3. Cook the skewers in a hot pan (or on the grillage) for 2 minutes on each side, then pour the marinade over them, deglaze with the white wine and leave to rest by the fire for 2 minutes.
  4. This goes well with white bread, rice or a bed of spinach.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
