Succulent shrimp are marinated then grilled on skewers with pineapple and peppers. Lovely to look at and even better to eat. I love it because it cooks on the grill in just minutes. You can also use an indoor grill in cooler weather. The recipe comes from http://www.cookingnook.com/shrimp-kabobs.html
