To prepare piri-piri sauce, combine vinegar, 1/4 cup oil, salt, and chopped peppers; stir well with a whisk.
Prepare grill.
Remove shrimp from bag; reserve marinade. Thread shrimp onto each of 6 (12-inch) skewers. Place skewers on grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill 7 minutes on each side or until done; turn and baste frequently with reserved marinade.
Remove shrimp from skewers; toss with 1/4 cup piri-piri sauce. Yield: 6 servings (serving size: 5 ounces shrimp).
