I really like these shrimp from Land O'Lakes. They are not really spicy--and you could leave out the red pepper. The grilled onions and the lemon give the kabobs that something extra--the lemon squeezes over everything when you press them off the skewer. Yum!

Cajun Shrimp Kabobs

*  1/4 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter
*  2 tablespoons ketchup
*  1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves*
*  1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
*  1/2 teaspoon pepper
*  1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh garlic
*  1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper

*  1 pound (about 20 to 25) fresh raw shrimp, peeled, deveined
*  8 green onions, each cut into 3 (2-inch) pieces
*  2 lemons, each cut into 6 slices, cut in half
*  12 (6-inch) wooden skewers, soaked in water

Heat gas grill on medium or charcoal grill until coals are ash white. Meanwhile, combine all sauce ingredients in 1-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until butter is melted (4 to 5 minutes).

To assemble kabobs place 1 shrimp, 1 green onion piece, 1 lemon slice, repeat until skewer is full; brush with sauce. Place kabobs on grill. Grill, brushing with sauce and turning frequently, until shrimp turn pink (6 to 10 minutes).

*Substitute 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves.
