- 2 T. cooking oil
- 1 1/4 lb. shrimp

-
Buy large shrimp because they'll be easier to grill on skewers. Many stores sell them already shelled, deveined and with tails removed. A hearty serving is about 6 ounces per person. This is about 10-12 shrimp and is 3 Weight Watchers points.
-
Prepare the shrimp for grilling. If not already done, devein and peel the shrimp. Rinse and pat dry with paper towels. Hold each shrimp in the shape of a C and thread onto the skewer, piercing each shrimp twice. Two piercings will help it stay on. Continue until all shrimp are on skewers
-
Prepare the marinade. In a bowl, combine the barbecue sauce, pineapple juice, ginger and oil. Stir well. Brush the marinade on the shrimp skewers on both sides.
-
Grill the shrimp directly on the rack over medium heat. Grill for about 4 minutes, turn and continue grilling for another 4-5 minutes. The shrimp will be opaque when done. While the shrimp is grilling, place the remaining marinade in a saucepan and heat to boiling. Use the extra heated marinade as extra sauce over the shrimp when serving and to spoon over rice.
