· 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
· 1 tablespoon honey
· 2 teaspoons minced garlic
· 2 teaspoons black sesame seeds
· 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
· 1 teaspoon dry mustard
· 2 tablespoons olive oil
· 1 tablespoon sesame oil
· 12 ounces capellini or very thin spaghetti, cooked al dente and chilled
· 24 large raw shrimp, peeled
· 1 large red onion, sliced 1/4-inch thick
· 2 zucchini, sliced 1/2-inch thick

Preparation
In small bowl, combine orange juice, vinegar, honey, garlic, sesame seeds, ginger, dry mustard. Gradually whisk in olive oil and sesame oil until well blended. Pour dressing over chilled capellini; toss to coat.
Thread shrimp on six 12-inch skewers. Toss shrimp, red onion slices, zucchini slices, and green onions in some oil. Grill vegetables 5 to 10 minutes or until crisp-tender, turning once halfway through grilling time. Grill shrimp 4 to 5 minutes or until pink, turning once halfway through grilling time.
Remove skewers and vegetables from grill. Separate red onion into rings; slice green onions diagonally. Combine pasta, shrimp, red and green onions, zucchini, and tomatoes. Toss well. Season with salt to taste. Sprinkle with dill weed. Serve immediately.
Makes 6 servings.
Note: If using wooden skewers, soak in water thirty minutes before using so ends won’t burn during grilling time.
