Need a quick and easy meal? Give these shrimp kabobs a try. The hardest part is waiting for the shrimp to marinate for an hour. After that, you'll have dinner on the table in 10 minutes. Once grilled, the shrimp are sweet and tangy with a slightly smoky taste. Full of flavor, we love how easy this was to throw together.

Ingredients
- 1 can tomato soup (10.75 oz)

How To Make shrimp kabobs
-
Step 1Mix soup, orange juice, soy sauce, vegetable oil, ginger, and brown sugar in a shallow, NON-metallic dish. Mix well.
-
Step 2Add shrimp, stir to coat well. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour, stirring intermittently.
-
Step 3Remove shrimp from marinade. Thread shrimp onto long skewers (I use two skewers each, so they will not 'twirl' around when trying to turn them on the grill. Instead of just one skewer going up the middle of each shrimp, I put a skewer at the head-end, a skewer at the tail end, and then slide 4 or 5 more shrimp onto those two skewers in like-fashion ... it anchors them better. Repeat this for each kabob).
-
Step 4Place kabobs on lightly-oiled grill rack over medium coals.
-
Step 5Grill, uncovered, for 10 minutes, or until shrimp turn pink, turning and brushing often with the marinade.
-
Step 6Heat the remaining marinade to a slight boil for several minutes and serve with the shrimp.
-
Step 7VARIATION: Prepare as in steps 1 & 2. Instead of grilling in step 3, place kabobs on the rack in the broiler pan. Broil 4" from heat for 5 minutes or until shrimp turn pink, turning and brushing often with marinade. Proceed as in step 4.
