- Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
- 2 firm, ripe Hass avocados, halved, pitted, peeled, and cut into wedges
Directions

- Preheat grill to medium-high. Thread 3 shrimp and 2 slices chorizo onto each skewer, alternating pieces. Season with salt. Grill until shrimp are opaque and chorizo is slightly softened, about 3 minutes per side.
