Barbecued Shrimp wth Mustard Sauce

Next time you have a barbecue, treat yourself to a little luxury—skewers of juicy barbecued shrimp in an exotically spiced marinade, served with a Dijon mustard sauce.

Ingredients
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1⁄2 teaspoon pepper
24 large raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
Directions
  1. To make the mustard dipping sauce, stir together the mustard, lemon juice, 1⁄2 teaspoon coriander, 1⁄2 teaspoon cumin and 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
  2. Combine the remaining 1 1⁄2 teaspoons coriander, 1 1⁄2 teaspoons cumin and 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Add the shrimp, tossing to coat.
  3. Preheat the barbecue. Thread the shrimp onto four long skewers. Place the shrimp on the barbecue and cook until opaque throughout, about 1 minute per side. Serve barbecued shrimp at room temperature or chilled, with the mustard sauce for dipping.
