SPICY GRILLED SHRIMP



Spicy Grilled Shrimp image

This Mark Bittman recipe from 1999 is big on flavor, but not too much effort. The hardest part is preparing the grill. It calls for just a few spices - garlic, lemon, paprika and cayenne - to yield an intense flavor. Feel free to adjust the cayenne to taste, and pay close attention to your paprika: For best results, make sure it's fresh. If it doesn't taste vibrant and smoky, it's time to buy more.

GRILLED SHRIMP WITH HONEY-GINGER BARBECUE SAUCE



Grilled Shrimp With Honey-Ginger Barbecue Sauce image

Of all the ways to prepare shrimp, the grill delivers the best flavor. Although unadorned "shrimp on the barbie" are great, an easily assembled gingery barbecue sauce makes them that much better. You can save time by buying already shelled and deveined shrimp, but our recipe developer, Alexis Touchet, who grew up in shrimp country in southwest Louisiana, thinks shell-on shrimp are better quality. Depending on where you live and what's in your market, you may not have much choice. Freshness trumps all, so don't hesitate to use your nose in deciding which shrimp to buy.

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Sauce:
Honey-Ginger Barbecue Sauce
Shrimp:
4 pounds jumbo (21-25 per pound) or extra-large (26-30 per pound) shrimp in shell, peeled, leaving tail and adjoining shell segment intact, and deveined (See Cooks' Notes)
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon salt
Special Equipment
18 to 24 (12-inch) wooden skewers (depending on size of shrimp used), soaked in water for 30 minutes

Steps:

  • For the Shrimp:
  • If necessary, pat shrimp dry, then thread about 6 shrimp (through top and tail, leaving shrimp curled), onto each skewer, without leaving space between shrimp.
  • Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium-high for gas); see Grilling Procedure.
  • Meanwhile, brush shrimp with vegetable oil and sprinkle evenly with salt.
  • Lightly oil grill rack. Grill shrimp, covered only if using a gas grill, turning over once, 2 minutes. Brush shrimp with some sauce from the saucepan, then turn. Brush shrimp with additional sauce then grill until just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve with reserved sauce.

Tips:

  • Use large shrimp for this recipe, as they will be easier to skewer and cook evenly.
  • If you don't have bamboo skewers, you can use metal skewers or even toothpicks.
  • Be sure to soak the skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling, to prevent them from burning.
  • When grilling the shrimp, cook them over medium heat and turn them frequently, to ensure that they cook evenly.
  • The spicy almond sauce is a great complement to the grilled shrimp. Be sure to make it ahead of time, so that the flavors can meld.
  • Serve the grilled shrimp lollipop with the spicy almond sauce, and garnish with fresh cilantro or green onions.

Conclusion:

Grilled shrimp lollipop with spicy almond sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. The shrimp are juicy and flavorful, and the spicy almond sauce adds a nice kick. This dish is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
