My neighbors made this for a summer picnic and it was delicious. They used an Italian dressing made at a local restaurant. Experiment a little or try Newman's Own Balsamic Vinaigrette.

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 lbs frozen raw shrimp (thawed and drained)
3/4 cup Italian dressing (a sweet or spicy brand that you like, but NOT fat-free)
3 small zucchini (sliced)
3 small summer squash (sliced)
1 red bell pepper (cubed)
cherry tomatoes (etc.) or mushroom (etc.)
1 tablespoon cajun seasoning

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients in a large zip-lock bag.
  • Seal and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours.
  • Thread shrimp and veggies onto metal skewers, alternating as desired.
  • Grill over medium heat about 4 minutes, turn once and grill 4 minutes more.

  • This also works as a stir-fry: Marinate as above and then saute all ingredients over medium-high heat in a large skillet until shrimp are pink.
