Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh shrimp that are deveined and peeled. - If you don't have time to marinate the shrimp, you can skip this step. However, marinating the shrimp will help to tenderize them and add flavor. - If you don't have a grill, you can cook the kabobs in a grill pan over medium heat. - Cook the kabobs until the shrimp are cooked through and opaque.
