Ingredients
Method
Bring large saucepan of salted water to boil. Add shrimp; reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, just until shrimp are pink, about 3 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
Thread 3 cooked shrimp onto each of 8 soaked wooden skewers; place in glass baking dish.
Slice zucchini in half lengthwise; cut crosswise into 3/4-inch (2 cm) thick chunks. Alternately thread 3 tomatoes and 2 chunks zucchini onto each of 8 more wooden skewers. Add to shrimp.
In small bowl, whisk together vegetable oil, sherry vinegar, salt and pepper; brush all over skewered shrimp and vegetables. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate for up to 6 hours.)
Place skeweres on top portion of raclette grill; grill, turning once, until shrimp are golden, about 4 minutes, and vegetables are softened, about 6 minutes.
