Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon grated gingerroot
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dark sesame oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 12 uncooked peeled large shrimp
  • 2 medium bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 12 small whole mushrooms
  • 6 green onions, cut into 1-inch pieces

Steps

  • 1
    Mix gingerroot, lime juice, soy sauce, sesame oil, red pepper and garlic in glass or plastic dish. Stir in shrimp until well coated. Cover and refrigerate 15 minutes.
  • 2
    Heat coals or gas grill. Remove shrimp from marinade; reserve marinade. Thread bell peppers, mushrooms, shrimp and onions alternately on each of twelve 6-inch skewers. Brush lightly with marinade.
  • 3
    Cover and grill kabobs about 4 inches from medium heat about 6 minutes, brushing with marinade and turning once, until shrimp are pink and firm and vegetables are crisp-tender. Discard marinade.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    We like the stronger flavor of dark sesame oil, but you also can use light sesame oil, which is lighter in color and flavor.
  • tip 2
    Cover and refrigerate the prepared skewers up to 24 hours ahead of time. They'll be ready to pop on the grill when your guests arrive.
