PINEAPPLE, MACADAMIA, COCONUT BAKED SHRIMP WITH CITRUS SAUCE



Pineapple, Macadamia, Coconut Baked Shrimp With Citrus Sauce image

No frying, fresh flavors and a great addition of macadamia nuts gives this baked shrimp a great taste. This really isn't hard and cooks very quickly. When I make this for a dinner party, I always get the jumbo shrimp, but a good extra large shrimp will work just fine. TIPS: For the pineapple juice in the recipe, I just bought a couple of cans of the sliced pineapple rings and used the juice in the recipe, but then baked the rings along side the shrimp for a nice side dish. Also ... I love to serve this with a very simple rice pilaf and add some chopped scallions and chopped macadamia nuts to tie all the flavors together. It makes a great easy side dish.

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 40m

Yield 24 Shrimp, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

24 extra large shrimp, peeled, tails on and deveined
2/3 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 egg whites
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon pineapple juice
1 cup coconut, lightly chopped
1/4 cup macadamia nuts, fine ground
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons lime juice
1/2 cup pineapple juice
2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated (you could use 1 teaspoon ground, but the fresh gives it so much more flavor)
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
2 -3 teaspoons cornstarch
pineapple (after using the juice in the recipe, bake the rings along side the shrimp and serve as a side dish)

Steps:

  • Shrimp -- Peel, leave the tails on and devein. To devein, run a knife from the tail to the tip, and make a thin cut, just enough so you can remove the black vein.
  • Dipping Sauce -- It just takes minutes to heat up, but now is a good time to get it ready to go. This can be heated up as the shrimp cooks. Just add everything in a small sauce pan and set on the stove. And remember, if you use the pineapple juice from a can of pineapple rings (save those rings), you can bake those for a side dish as you bake the shrimp.
  • Coatings -- #1) In a small pan or bowl, mix the corn starch, salt and pepper and set to the side. #2) Mix the egg whites, honey and pineapple juice (you may want to heat up the honey for a few seconds in the microwave so it is easier to mix in). Just set to the side. #3) Lastly, add the coconut, macadamia nuts, and cumin -- again, to a small bowl or pie plate and set to the side.
  • NOTE: I chop my macadamia nuts in my small food processor so they are fine ground, remove to the bowl or plate. Now the coconut -- I add this to my food processor and pulse only 1-2 times. Coconut is moist, and you don't want to puree it, so go easy.
  • Shrimp -- Make sure the shrimp are dry, then and dip in the corn starch mixture, this will allow the coating to stick well. Next, the egg white, and then in the nut and coconut mixture.
  • Bake -- Heat your oven to 400 degrees. Either spray a baking sheet with a non-stick spray or I prefer to line the baking sheet with parchment paper. Add the shrimp lying on their sides and spray with a non stick spray, (this will make the coconut crust get golden brown). Bake 7-10 minutes on the middle shelf until golden brown and flip. Cook another 5-7 minutes and they are done. They will start to curl up and the coconut will be golden brown.
  • Note: Remember those pineapple rings? Melt 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons brown sugar in a small cup in the micro for 10 seconds. Brush on the pineapple rings and put them right on the same baking sheet as the shrimp. They won't take quite as long, so just check them. A great side dish and easy.
  • Sauce -- As the shrimp bakes, your sauce is ready to go. Just heat to medium to medium high, you want it to come to a light boil, and then reduce to medium low. The corn starch once heated will naturally thicken the sauce. If you want it a bit thinner, just add a bit more orange juice or pineapple juice, that is up to you how thick or thin you want it. Serve warm.
  • Serve -- Just ENJOY! I like to serve a little sauce in cups on each plate with the shrimp, the rice pilaf and my grilled pineapple rings.

MACADAMIA COCONUT SHRIMP



Macadamia Coconut Shrimp image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup orange marmalade
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon hot sauce, such as Frank's
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon paprika
2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 large egg whites
Heaping 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
Heaping 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
Heaping 1/2 cup macadamia nuts, finely ground
Vegetable oil, for frying
18 jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails on

Steps:

  • For the dipping sauce: Stir the marmalade, mustard and hot sauce together. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • For the shrimp: Combine the flour, paprika, Cajun seasoning, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a shallow bowl. Place the egg whites in another shallow bowl and whisk until frothy. Combine the panko, coconut and ground macadamias in a third shallow bowl.
  • Fill a wide, shallow pot with about 1 inch of oil. Heat over medium-high heat until the oil registers 350 degrees F on a deep-frying thermometer. Line a plate with paper towels.
  • Meanwhile, toss the shrimp in the seasoned flour to coat. Working with a few shrimp at a time, shake off the excess flour and dip in the egg whites to coat.
  • Let the excess egg white drip off, then toss in the coconut mixture, pressing with your fingertips to get as much coating to adhere as possible.
  • Add half of the shrimp to the oil and fry until golden brown and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side; transfer to the lined plate to drain. Return the oil to 350 degrees F and repeat with the remaining shrimp.
  • Arrange the shrimp and dipping sauce on a serving platter and serve warm.

ROASTED PINEAPPLE WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE CARAMELIZED MACADAMIA NUTS



Roasted Pineapple with White Chocolate Caramelized Macadamia Nuts image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 5h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

6 ounces milk chocolate
2 ounces white chocolate
12 ounces eggs
1 cup plus 4 tablespoons sugar
2 cups cake flour, sifted
4 tablespoons butter, melted
6 ounces finely chopped macadamia nuts
7 ounces pineapple
1 cup sugar
1/2 -ounce star anise
1/2 -ounce cinnamon stick
1 vanilla pod
6 tablespoons butter
12 ounces macadamia nuts
2/3 cup sugar
6 ounces milk
1 gelatin leaf
8 ounces white chocolate
12 ounces whipped cream
4 tablespoons mango puree
4 teaspoons gelatin

Steps:

  • Chocolate Ring:
  • Begin by melting the milk and white chocolate. Cut 4 sterilized, food-safe flexible plastic strips 1 1/2 inches wide and 5 inches long. Spread a thin layer of milk chocolate on the plastic strips. Using the tine of a fork, scrape the length of the strip through the chocolate to create lines. Spread a layer of white chocolate immediately, directly over and then fold to form a ring. Seal edge with a plastic strip. Set aside to harden.
  • Preheat the oven to 360 degrees F.
  • Mix the sponge by whisking the eggs and sugar on high speed for 15 minutes, until pale yellow and thick. Take out of the mixer and fold in by hand the sifted flour, chopped macadamia nuts, and melted butter. Spread thinly on a buttered, floured and parchment lined baking tray and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Lower the oven to 340 degrees F.
  • To roast pineapple, begin by cutting the pineapple into grape size pieces and then toss in sugar and spices. Bake for 2 hours. Let cool.
  • To caramelize the macadamia nuts, first warm the nuts in the oven for 5 minutes. While nuts are warming, place the sugar in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat until the sugar melts and turns an amber color, about 10 minutes. Carefully add the nuts to the sugar mixture and stir to coat the nuts. Carefully remove from the pan and cool on a marble table or baking tray.
  • To make mousse, boil the milk, remove from the heat and add the gelatin while mixing in the white chocolate. Cool down slightly before folding in the whipped cream.
  • To make the jelly, melt the gelatin with the mango puree and strain into a container for future use.
  • To plate, place a circle of sponge in the base of the chocolate ring, sprinkle with chopped caramelized macadamias. Pipe 1/3 of the cup with mousse; place a spoonful of pineapple mix, top with mousse and a layer of mango jelly. Place in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours. Once chilled, remove the plastic strip, top with caramelized macadamia nuts and macadamia sponge.
  • Serve immediately.

BAKED COCONUT SHRIMP WITH PINEAPPLE SAUCE

  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The shrimp will be at its best when it is hot and juicy.
