GRILLED SHRIMP SKEWERS
"This recipe is similar to a barbecue shrimp dish I love at a restaurant in Florida," writes Sandy Lutz from North Canton, Ohio. "I serve it as an entree with brown rice and a salad, but it could work as an appetizer, too."

Steps:
- Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- In a medium saucepan add the butter, hot sauce and chili powder over medium-high heat. Once the butter melts, add the garlic and vinegar, and saute until it sizzles and is fragrant, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat. Reserve a few tablespoons of the sauce for a later use.
- Stick 3 shrimp on each skewer. Sprinkle the shrimp with salt and pepper on both sides. Place the shrimp on the grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, basting with the sauce the last few minutes of grilling.
- Remove the shrimp to a platter and drizzle the reserved sauce over the skewers. Serve the shrimp skewers with carrots, celery sticks and creamy blue cheese dressing.

SPICY GRILLED SHRIMP SKEWERS
I suggest to use fresh shrimp for this as frozen thawed will create a watery marinade, do not marinade for longer than 30 minutes or the acid in the lemon juice will "cook" the shrimp, adjust the cayenne to suit heat level, I have left the Tabasco as optional you may add it or omit --- this shrimp is very good!

OAXACAN GRILLED SHRIMP
We watched these being cooked right by our table while in Huatulco. The smell when the marinade was brushed on the jumbo shrimp while on the grill filled the air - so good! This is our version. Enjoy! **Preparation time includes 30 minute marinading time (****edit June 25/07 - it was suggested that lime juice would be good instead of lemon juice so I tried it out and I prefer it that way. Thank you for that!) ***NOTE : ) Aug. 7/10 - discovered an even better way to enjoy this recipe! Ran out of skewers so just threw the prawns with all the marinade into a foil pan and threw that on the bbq stirring and turning for about 5 to 7 minutes (depending on size of your prawns). They turned out wonderfully moist and tasty and the resulting sauce was fabulous to dip a crusty bread onto. The sauce is also very tasty ladled on top of linguine. So fast and easy. Cuts the prep time down to basically nothing.

GRILLED SHRIMP SKEWERS WITH MEXICAN CORN ELOTES SALAD #RSC
Ready, Set, Cook! Hidden Valley Contest Entry. One of my favorite street foods from Mexico is "elotes", which is corn on the cob with various toppings. I've lightened it up with Greek yogurt and paired it with grilled shrimp. Delicious!
