1. Shrimp - or scampi - With these skewers, you use large shrimp. Buy them with a tail or completely peeled from the freezer or the refrigerator. Shrimp have a firm texture and a sweet smell when grilled.
2. Variation - Thread slices of bell pepper and wedges of onion alternately onto the skewer.
3. Spice it up - mix ½ teaspoon of chili pepper flakes with the marinade.
4. Extra flavor - brush the shrimp skewers with melted butter while grilling.
5. Bake it in the oven - Bake for 15 minutes in a preheated oven at 440 °F (200 °C).
6. Wooden bamboo sticks - Soak them in cold water for 30 minutes before making the shrimp skewer. This way, the sticks do not burn when grilling.
