1/2 lb Fresh or frozen Scallops

1 ts Finely shredded Orange Peel

1 ts Grated Gingerroot

1 x Clove garlic, minced

1/4 ts Ground Red Pepper

12 fresh or frozen large Shrimp, peeled and deveined (about 1/2 lb total)

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. If using fresh pea pods, cook in boiling water about 2 minutes; drain.

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 4-6 minutes more or till shrimp turn pink and scallops are opaque. Brush occasionally with marinade.
