Caribbean Shrimp Kebabs image

Using two skewers per kebab will help keep the shrimp in place when turning them on the grill. To keep shrimp from toughening, marinate no longer than five minutes.

Number Of Ingredients 9

32 medium shrimp (about 1 pound), peeled and deveined
2 large red bell peppers, ribs and seeds removed, cut into 24 pieces (about 1 1/2 inches each)
2 tablespoons dark rum

1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder (preferably Madras)
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice

These kebabs are a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I usually make them with whatever vegetables I have on hand.
