I've also made this by putting the shrimp on a grilling pan and cooking the shrimp and veggies that way, its just not as good as the skewers are.
Ingredients:
2 cups uncooked penne
1 lb uncooked large shrimp, tails removed
2 medium zucchini, cut into 1/2 inch slices
1 cup cherry tomatoes
1/2 cup pesto sauce
1 ounce parmesan cheese (1/4 cup)
Directions:
1. Cook penne according to pkg. directions; drain and place in serving bowl or dish.
2. Meanwhile, heat grill.
3. In large bowl, combine shrimp, zucchini, tomatoes and 1/4 cups of the pesto; stir gently to coat well.
4. Thread shrimp, zucchini and tomatoes onto skewers.
5. When grill is heated, place skewers on grill over medium heat.
6. Cook 6 to 8 minutes or until shrimp are pink and opaque, and vegetables are crisp tender, turning once.
7. Remove shrimp and vegetables from skewers; add to penne.
8. Add remaining 1/4 cup pesto, toss gently to mix.
9. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
