This is from the program of Food Network stars, Pat and Gina Neeley. I have made it a few times, and it is "off the hook" as Guy says. This was done in Feb of 2010. If you make it, be sure to include the dipping sauce because it is excellent as well.

Tips:

  • Clean the shrimp properly. Remove the shells and devein the shrimp before cooking.
  • Marinate the shrimp in a mixture of coconut milk, lime juice, and spices for at least 30 minutes. This will help to tenderize the shrimp and infuse them with flavor.
  • Cook the shrimp over medium heat until they are cooked through. Do not overcook the shrimp, or they will become tough.
  • Serve the shrimp with a variety of dipping sauces, such as sweet and sour sauce, chili sauce, or coconut sauce.
