Categories     appetizer

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

24 jumbo tiger shrimp (about 10 per pound), deveined
1/4 cup fresh lime (substitution: lemon juice)
1/4 cup palm sugar or granulated sugar
1/4 cup fish sauce
1 large garlic clove, finely grated
1 to 2 fresh red Thai chiles, stemmed, seeded, and minced
1/4 cup packed fresh Thai basil, minced (substitution: mint or cilantro leaves)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Sour Mango Salad, recipe follows
4 large green mangos, peeled, halved lengthwise, sliced using an Asian shredder or julienned with a knife
2 large carrots, peeled and julienned
2 red Thai chiles, stemmed, seeded, and sliced into thin rounds
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (substitution: lemon juice)
1/3 cup fish sauce
1/3 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Using a paring knife, cut through the back shell of each shrimp. Remove the dark vein by running your forefinger between the shell and the flesh of each shrimp, keeping the shell intact. Reserve shrimp in a re-sealable gallon plastic bag.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the lime juice and sugar until the sugar is completely dissolved, then add the fish sauce. Add the garlic, chile, Thai basil, and 1 tablespoon oil. Stir well and pour over the reserved shrimp in the plastic bag. Seal the bag, squeezing out the air. Massage the bag to make sure that all of the shrimp are covered and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Heat a grill pan over high heat. Oil the grill pan with remaining oil. Grill the shrimp, turning once to prevent burning, until evenly pink and golden on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve shrimp on large plate over Sour Mango Salad.
  • Mix the mangos, carrots, and chiles in a large bowl.
  • For the dressing: in a medium bowl, whisk together the lime, fish sauce, and sugar until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add the dressing to the bowl and toss together. Let stand 20 minutes. Drain and serve at room temperature or lightly chilled.

I marinate the shrimp in a sweet and spicy coconut milk marinade then I cook them in a dry pan. The salsa finishes it off with more sweetness and heat. Basil keeps the tongue awake through it all.
