Another Monica Bhide recipe! We had the shrimp late last night and I woke up this morning wishing I had some more, they were so delicious! ;) I suggest that you make double the quantity and keep them ready to serve!!! We made these for the seafood and protein lovers! Monica Bhide's newest cookbook is Modern Spice: Inspired Indian Flavors for the Contemporary Kitchen (Simon & Schuster, 2009). There is a 2 hr marinating time for which I didn't allow.

GRILLED HONEY GLAZED SHRIMP

These are great with steaks as a surf and turf

Provided by Stormy Stewart

Categories     Seafood

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 c orange juice
3/4 c honey
2 tsp salt
1/3 c lime juice
1/3 c dijon mustard
2 Tbsp chilli powder
2 Tbsp paprika
2 tsp black and red pepper blend
2 tsp oregano
1 tsp garlic or onion powder
30 jumbo shrimp
12 bambo skewers soaked in water 30 minutes

Steps:

  • 1. Place orange juice, honey, lime juice, mustard and dry seasonings in a blender and blend on high for 1 minute until smooth. Pour into a saucepan and simmer over medium heat for 12 minutes or until thickened and reduced by half. Divide the glaze into 2 plastic containers, seal tightly and refrigerate until ready to use. Double thread 5 shrimp onto 2 parallel skewers. Cook shrimp over hot coals for about 3 minutes on each side or until completely pink, basting with one container of the glaze during grilling. Remove from grill and baste with remaining glaze.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, large shrimp: Smaller shrimp will cook too quickly and become tough. Devein the shrimp to remove the intestinal tract, which can be gritty and unpleasant to eat.
  • Make sure the shrimp is completely dry before cooking: This will help the glaze stick to the shrimp and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: This will allow you to cook the shrimp in a single layer, which will help them cook evenly.
  • Cook the shrimp over high heat: This will help to caramelize the glaze and give the shrimp a nice sear.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the shrimp will not cook evenly and will become steamed instead of fried.
  • Flip the shrimp halfway through cooking: This will help to ensure that the shrimp are cooked evenly on both sides.
  • Do not overcook the shrimp: Overcooked shrimp will become tough and rubbery. Cook the shrimp for just a few minutes per side, or until they areopaque and pink.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately: Honey glazed shrimp are best served hot and fresh. You can garnish them with chopped parsley, green onions, or sesame seeds.

Conclusion:

Honey glazed shrimp is an easy and delicious dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a party appetizer. The shrimp are coated in a sweet and sticky glaze that is made with honey, soy sauce, and rice vinegar. The glaze is also flavored with garlic, ginger, and sesame oil. The shrimp are then cooked in a skillet until they are cooked through and caramelized. Honey glazed shrimp can be served with rice, noodles, or vegetables.
