1 14oz. can whole peeled tomatoes, undrained and chopped
½ cup vegetable or olive oil
¼ cup dry wine or vermouth
¼ cup chopped fresh basil
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. cracked peppercorns

On skewers, alternately thread shrimp with ham strip weaving ham around shrimp.
Grill or broil, turning and basting frequently with reserved
