BBQ SHRIMPS AND CHICKEN

Picnics are the great way to spend time together with family as well as with friends. When it comes with combined good food, it simply tastes better with a company of fresh air on sunny day,who will miss such precious moments? So one day all our friends planned for an outdoor picnic. There we decided to have BBQ get together potluck party nearby park. Had lots of fun and the real fun was the gents preparing food on BBQ ,where as we ladies sat down relaxing ,chatting and commenting on them. On my side we decided to prepare shrimp recipe. It was mind blowing when it comes under BBQ preparation. In this post I would like to add one of our friend's chicken recipe too. Same recipe can also be broiled in the oven. The marination for shrimps can also be done with mushrooms and eggplants. That too tastes delicious.
On my sudden glance, I was so thrilled to see ''SIG'S GRILL IT EVENT'' as I was checking her blog.
