One of the best recipes I have ever made - I left the shrimp and the veggies on different skewers as they had different cooking times, and you can choose veggies that suit you. Make 2 times the sauce as it is the best part. I will definately make this again and again!
Shrimp Skewers with Mango Dipping Sauce
Set the finished skewers atop hot cooked rice tossed with chopped fresh cilantro. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water while you prepare the ingredients.
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 2 skewers and about 1/4 cup sauce)
