Instructions

1.Soak skewer sticks in a bowl of cold water for at least 10 minutes (this will prevent them from burning while on the grill). Preheat grill to medium high.
2.Build skewers by alternating veggies and shrimp, pushing ingredients closely together on each skewer. Brush each with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
3.Lay skewers down on grill grates and cook about 3 minutes each side (for a total of about 9 minutes), until veggies and shrimp have good sear marks on them, but are not overcooked. Remove and place on a large platter.
4.Squeeze a fresh lemon over the plateful of skewers. Serve!
