Ingredients

  • 1 lb uncooked deveined peeled large shrimp, thawed if frozen
  • 1 cup fat-free Italian dressing
  • 1 medium red onion, cut into 8 pieces
  • 1 medium bell pepper, cut into 8 pieces
  • 16 medium cherry tomatoes
  • 16 small whole mushrooms

Steps

  • 1
    In shallow glass or plastic dish or resealable freezer plastic bag, place shrimp and dressing. Cover dish or seal bag; refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • 2
    Heat gas or charcoal grill. Remove shrimp from marinade; reserve marinade. Thread shrimp, onion, bell pepper, tomatoes and mushrooms alternately on each of 4 (15-inch) metal skewers, leaving 1/4-inch space between each piece.
  • 3
    Place kabobs on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 6 to 8 minutes, turning frequently and brushing several times with marinade, until shrimp are pink. Discard any remaining marinade.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Leave about a 1/4-inch space between the pieces on the skewers to allow for even cooking.
  • tip 2
    Hot cooked orzo or rosamarina pasta makes a terrific side dish. If you have any chopped fresh herbs on hand (thyme and parsley are delicious), toss them with the cooked pasta.
