Number Of Ingredients 19

Kabobs -
24 Medium Shrimp - tail on, shell removed and deveined
1 Red Pepper
1 Lemon
1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
2 Tbsp shredded ginger (1 inch piece)
1 Tbsp Hoisin sauce
3 Tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground pepper
Mango Salsa -
1 mango
2 tomatoes
2 Tbsp ginger
1 garlic clove
1 shallot
2 Tbsp fresh cilantro
2 Tbsp fresh mint

Steps:

  • Turn the grill on to high, to preheat. Combine the juice of the lemon, and the next 7 ingredients into a medium bowl. Cut the red pepper into 1 inch squares. Add the red pepper and shrimp to the lemon juice mixture and marinate for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. While the shrimp marinates, make the salsa. Cut the mango and tomatoes into 1/4 inch chuncks, crush the garlic and shred the ginger. Finely mince the shallot cilantro and mint and add to the mango mixture. Stir together and let sit at room temperature, stirring occasionally. To prepare the kabobs, take your skewers and slide 2 pieces of pepper followed by 1 shrimp, continue this 3 times on each skewer ending with 2 peppers on the top of the skewer. Place the kabobs on the grill and marinate with leftover marinade. These will cook fast, so watch them carefully. It will take about 15 minutes to cook, turning often.
