Shrimp Skewers with Coconut, Jalapeño, and Cilantro Dipping Sauce
The bright, tropical flavors of these skewers make them a welcome addition to a holiday party. Purchase the best fresh shrimp you can find, and ask the fishmonger to peel and devein them for you. You also could serve two skewers on a bed of rice as a light supper.
