BUTTERY GRILLED SHRIMP



BUTTERY GRILLED SHRIMP image

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tsp Ground Cumin
3 Tbsp 'i Can't Believe It's Not Butter' Spread
30 Colossal or Jumbo Shrimp
1½ tsp Kosher Salt, divided
1 tsp Freshly Ground White Pepper, divided
Juice of 1 Lemon
½ cup Tightly Packed Fresh Basil Leaves
6 Medium Tomatoes, at room temperature), sliced ½" thick
2 tsp Honey or Agave Syrup

Steps:

  • Heat cumin in an 8-inch skillet over low heat, until warm and slightly toasted, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, then stir in the Spread until melted; set aside. Brush shrimp on both sides with Spread mixture, then season with 1 teaspoon of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper. Grill, turning once, until shrimp turn pink, about 3 minutes. Toss shrimp with lemon juice and about HALF of the basil, then set aside. Arrange tomatoes on serving platter, then sprinkle them with remaining salt and pepper, the honey and remaining basil leaves. Top with shrimp and their juices.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, large shrimp: Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. Look for shrimp that are firm and have a translucent appearance.
  • Remove the shells and devein the shrimp: This will make them easier to eat and remove any potential grit or sand.
  • Marinate the shrimp in a flavorful mixture: This will help to tenderize the shrimp and add flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, such as olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, herbs, and spices.
  • Cook the shrimp over high heat: This will help to sear the shrimp and prevent them from becoming rubbery. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are opaque and cooked through.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately: Grilled shrimp are best served immediately, while they are still hot and juicy.
