Shrimp Hearts

12 shrimp, peeled, tail-on
6 cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp lime juice
squirt of sriracha sauce (maybe 1/8 - 1/4 tsp)
sprinkle of lemon/herb mix or lemon pepper
wooden skewers

Once you've soaked the wooden skewers in water for a few minutes, start with a shrimp and thread the skewer through two sides of the top curve.  Then through the top of the tomato and next through the second shrimp. Take a second skewer and pass it through the top of both tails. Isn't it cute?

Mix the olive oil, lime juice and sriracha sauce together and brush on 15-20 minutes before grilling.

Sprinkle with lemon herb mix.  I used this one from President's Choice, but you could use Mrs Dash or lemon pepper.

Grill your shrimp on medium high heat 2-3 minutes per side and serve on a simple salad.

This would be a great appetizer on Valentine's Day or anytime you want to show someone you love them.  (I know, mushy eh?)
