SPICY GRILLED SHRIMP
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.

BELGIAN ENDIVE WITH GOLD COAST SHRIMP SALAD
Steps:
- To poach the shrimp, combine the water, carrot, celery, lemon, onion, bay leaves, and 1 tablespoon of the salt in a large pot. Bring to a boil over high heat, then decrease the heat to low. Simmer gently for about 10 minutes to make a flavorful court-bouillon.
- Have ready a frozen freezer pack sealed in a heavy-duty plastic bag or a large heavy-duty sealable plastic bag filled with ice cubes. Make an ice bath to cool the shrimp: transfer several cups (or more, depending on the quantity of shrimp) of the broth to a large heatproof bowl. Place the ice pack in the bowl of broth; move the pack around until the broth is well chilled (drain and add more ice to the bag as needed). Return the heat to high and bring the remaining mixture to a rolling boil. Add the shrimp and boil until the shells are pink and the meat is white, 1 to 2 minutes. Do not overcook.
- Drain the shrimp in a colander or remove with a slotted spoon, then immediately transfer to the chilled liquid to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
- To prepare the endive, cut off and discard the root ends. Pull the heads apart one leaf at a time. Arrange the leaves in concentric circles like a flower on a large platter.
- To prepare the salad, peel, devein, and coarsely chop the shrimp. Place in a bowl with the chopped tarragon and mayonnaise; stir to combine. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper.
- To assemble, place 1 generous teaspoon of shrimp salad near the trimmed bottom edge of each endive leaf. Garnish each with a tarragon leaf. Serve immediately.
- making ahead
- The shrimp salad can be prepared completely ahead and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The leaves can be prepared and wrapped in damp paper towels in a sealable plastic bag overnight. Finally, up to 2 hours ahead, the filled endive leaves can be arranged on the platter, covered with a damp paper towel, and refrigerated. Serve chilled.

Steps:
- Heat an outdoor grill or stove top grill pan over high heat.
- Trim the tough, woody bottom of the endive leaving just enough for the leaves to remain connected. Cut the endives in half, lengthwise. Combine the oil and 1/2 tablespoon fresh oregano. Brush the cut sides of the endive with the oil oregano mixture.
- Brush grill grates or grill pan lightly with olive oil. Grill the endives on the grill by placing them cut side down and cooking until the edges are browned and curled, about 3 - 4 minutes. Remove to serving dish and drizzle with balsamic vinegar, remaining oregano, salt and pepper.

Tips:
- Choose the right shrimp: Opt for large, fresh shrimp with a firm texture and a sweet flavor. Look for shrimp that have a translucent, slightly pink appearance and avoid any that are brown or discolored.
- Marinate the shrimp: Marinating the shrimp in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, and lime juice helps to enhance their flavor and make them more tender.
- Grill the shrimp to perfection: Cook the shrimp over medium-high heat until they are opaque and slightly charred, about 2-3 minutes per side. Avoid overcooking, as this will make them tough and rubbery.
- Make a refreshing plum salad: Combine fresh plums, Belgian endive, red onion, and mint leaves for a light and flavorful salad that complements the grilled shrimp perfectly.
- Prepare a tangy passion fruit vinaigrette: Whisk together passion fruit juice, olive oil, honey, lime juice, and Dijon mustard for a zesty dressing that adds a pop of flavor to the salad.
Conclusion:
This grilled spicy shrimp with fresh plums, Belgian endive salad, and passion fruit vinaigrette is a delightful dish that combines bold flavors and refreshing ingredients. The succulent shrimp, marinated in a flavorful blend of spices, pairs perfectly with the sweet and tangy plum salad. The passion fruit vinaigrette adds a bright and tangy touch, completing this dish and making it a perfect choice for a light and healthy summer meal.
