mango shrimp kebabs

Terry and I decided that we wanted shrimp for a recent Saturday dinner, so I went through my recipe database and found one for mango shrimp kebabs.

Not surprisingly, I did not stick close to the recipe. Terry can’t eat onions, so no onions on the skewers. The bell peppers were green, because that is what we had in our container garden. And as for the shrimp, you know I would never accept such minimal seasoning. I had about a third of a can of chipotle pepper in adobo sauce which I put into the chopper attachment of my Cuisinart immersion blender. I added olive oil and water. The shrimp were defrosting in a bowl so I added the mixture and tossed the shrimp.

It turned out very well. The heat from the shrimp was balanced by the cool of the mango. No lime juice necessary. It made for a very tasty Saturday dinner.
