Garlic Herb: Infused Skewers (#4)

Submitted by Rita1652

"A great way to lightly flavor your food from the inside. Anything that can be "skewered" will have a little extra flavor. The possibilities are endless. This is one of many choices. Check out my others."

• 1⁄4 cup dry red wine

2. Soak the skewers in liquid for one hour.

Very good! I was surprised at how much flavor these actually gave to the food. I used them for shrimp and they had a nice subtle but noticable flavor. Thanks, Rita.

i made these tonight as is recomended with Recipe #229266. I was skeptical at first about how much flavor it really could add. I used water instead of the wine, and i didnt have any rosemary - but the flavor really did carry through to the veggies on the skewers. Very easy to do since i usually soak wooden skewers anyways - i cant wait to try out some of the other flavors you have posted!
