"Cooking shrimp and peppers on the grill doesn't take long, and the grill adds so much flavor. Shishito peppers are not usually hot, but occasionally one will surprise you!"

Step 1
Preheat the grill to medium high (about 450° F.
Step 2
Process parsley, cilantro, basil, and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. Add lemon rind, juice, crushed red pepper, 3 tablespoons oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Process until finely chopped and well combined.
Step 3
Toss together shrimp and 1/4 cup herb mixture. Thread shrimp onto 4 skewers (do not over crowd...if you have short skewers add more skewers). Thread the peppers onto 4 skewers. Drizzle skewers with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil; sprinkle with black pepper and remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
Step 4
Place the skewers on the grill coated with cooking spray; grill just until the shrimp are done and peppers are charred, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
Step 5
Brush the skewers with the remaining herb mixture before serving.
