I can’t believe that July 4th is just around the corner. Everyone must be gearing up for the biggest day in America, the Independence Day.

If you are having a backyard cookout, BBQ, summer parties and celebrations, I am sure you will love these Sweet Chili Shrimp Skewers.

I am partial to shrimp and I absolutely love the sweet, sticky and mildly spicy Thai sweet chili sauce. When you combine the two ingredients together, thread the shrimp onto bamboo skewers and grill over fire, magic happens.

You have the most amazing and mouthwatering shrimp on sticks.

This Sweet Chili Shrimp Skewers recipe is very easy to make, with store-bought ingredients. A must try this summer!
