Sweet Shrimp Skewers

Call it what you want, skewers, kebabs, brochettes, I love anything on a stick.  It's fun to make, cook and eat.  I grilled these skewers with our indoor electric barbecue, otherwise they can be pan fried. 



Ingredients:
-800 grams of shrimp
-12 medium sized skewers
-1/4 cup of olive oil
-1/4 cup of sweet chili sauce
-2 garlic cloves, minced
-Chopped coriander or parsley (around 1/4 cup)






Shrimp with sauce mixture
Off with their heads!

-Take off the head, tail and skin of the shrimps.
-Combine and mix the shrimp and sauce in a bowl.
-Place 3 shrimps on each skewer.
-Either grill on the barbecue or pan fry for a few minutes.

Optional:
-Goes great with steamed rice or stir-fried vegetables.
