GARBANZO SALSA
1. Peel shrimp (leave on tail section, if desired), devein, and rinse.
Divide pancetta into 24 equal pieces. Tightly wrap a pancetta piece around each shrimp.
2. Push a slender skewer through the pancetta and shrimp just above the shrimp's tail and out through the pancetta at the fat end of the shrimp. Push another pancetta-wrapped shrimp onto the skewer in the same fashion; use 2 shrimp per skewer. If assembled ahead, cover and chill up until the next day.
3. Lay shrimp on a grill 2-4" above a solid bed of medium-hot coal (you can hold your hand at grill level for only 3-4 seconds). Turn frequently (watch for flares from drips) to brown evenly, cooking until shrimp are opaque in center (cut to test), about 5 minutes.
Dunk shrimp in salsa, as desired.
