Keto Steak and Shrimp Kabobs - Grilled Surf & Turf Recipe (2024)

This keto steak and shrimp kabobs are low-carb and perfect for cookouts, BBQs, and filling lunch. Make it with garlic butter – you are going to love it!

Surf and Turf Kabobs

Shrimp and steak are a classic pair. I love surf and turf, don’t you? They are the perfect thing to make on the grill because they feel so different when you bite into them.

If you ever need an idea for a lunch protein, keep this recipe handy! You can reuse it on top of salads or on the side with your favorite veggies.

Garlic Butter Shrimp and Steak

What really sets this recipe apart from others is the incredible garlic butter. I seasoned it with fresh parsley, minced garlic, and salt and pepper. It’s a pretty basic recipe that elevates the shrimp and steak to amazing heights.

I love using this recipe for my meal prep. After you grill the steak and shrimp, store them in an airtight container. I usually take them off the skewers and store them together in my meal prep containers. Keep them in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Keto Grilled Kabobs

There are a few ways that you can change this recipe and make it taste differently each time. Use your favorite meat. Instead of steak or shrimp, use some pork chops and chicken breast.

You can also use any of your favorite types of vegetables. Add some mushrooms, asparagus spears, and carrots.

What To Serve With Kabobs

Since this is a grilled recipe, I like to serve lighter veggies and something that tastes like a roll (without the carbs). I make my keto garlic knots because they really do go with almost any dish! The garlic flavor in these low-carb rolls complements the garlic butter on the shrimp and steak kabobs.

I also really like cauliflower mash with the kabobs because it tastes just like mashed potatoes. Whenever you make anything on the grill, serve it with cheesy asparagus with bacon. The crispy bacon goes with just about anything!

If you want something more like a salad to eat with it, try it with creamy cucumber radish salad, keto coleslaw, or creamed spinach.

Keto Grill Ideas

When you are picking out shrimp to use in your kabobs, always use jumbo shrimp. This way they will cook at the same rate as the steak. If the shrimp is too small, it might burn and the steak won’t even be fully cooked.

Make this on your indoor or outdoor grill. If you don’t want to use your grill, I even included instructions about how to make this recipe in your oven. It’s all in the printable recipe card.

Trust me – use fresh parsley and minced garlic in the garlic butter. Not only will it have the best look, but fresh herbs have a fuller taste than dried ones.

Ingredients:

For the kebabs:

Zucchini
Red Bell pepper
Yellow bell pepper
Red onion
Good quality steak
Jumbo shrimp
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
6 wooden skewers

For the garlic butter:

Butter
Parsley
Garlic
Salt and pepper

Instructions:

Preheat an indoor or outdoor grill, or the oven to 375 degrees, depending on your preferred cooking method. If using the oven, soak the skewers in water a few hours before using.

Place the shrimp, steak and vegetables into a large mixing bowl.

Drizzle the mixture with olive oil and add salt and pepper to taste. Toss to combine well.

Layer the vegetables and protein on the skewers in any way that you like.

For grill preparation, place the kebabs on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side. For the oven, cook for 15-20 minutes, turning the kebabs halfway through the cooking time.

In a bowl, combine the ingredients for the garlic butter.

As soon as the kebabs come off of the grill or out of the oven, brush them liberally with the garlic butter before serving.
