EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Soak wooden or bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes to keep them from burning on the grill.

Make a main dish out of these spicy-sweet shrimp—serve over rice that’s been cooked in the leftover coconut milk.

Arrange the kabobs on a large platter decorated with sprigs of cilantro, green onion fans or fresh lemon grass.

I made a salad and placed the gilled shrimp on top. Let's just say that I didn't mind eating healthy this time and my family of picky eaters liked the meal and loved the sauce.
