SPICY THAI BASIL GRILLED SHRIMP WITH SOUR MANGO SALAD

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.

FLANK STEAK ON THAI MANGO SALAD

Steps:

• Combine light soy sauce, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, garlic, and ginger root in a resealable plastic bag. Add flank steak; seal bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Toss mango, salad greens, bean sprouts, carrot, and snow peas together in a large bowl. Add peanuts, mint, cilantro, Thai basil, and green onion.
• Transfer steak to grill, discarding marinade; cook, turning every 3 to 4 minutes, until beginning to firm and is hot and slightly pink in the center, about 10 minutes total. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Move steak to a dish; cover with aluminum foil. Allow to rest for 5 minutes.
• Whisk lime juice, fish sauce, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, brown sugar, soy sauce, and shallot together in a bowl to create dressing. Stir in chile pepper. Drizzle dressing over mango-greens mixture; divide onto 2 serving plates.

THAI CHICKEN, MANGO & PINEAPPLE SALAD

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, red curry paste, orange zest, and orange juice and reserve 1/2 cup of the mixture in a separate container (I SAVED 1 CUP AS THIS MADE A LOT OF MARINADE AND I USED MORE GREENS).
• In a ziplock bag, toss together the chicken breast chunks and half of the marinade from the bowl. Toss the fruit and the remaining marinade in another ziplock bag. Let the food marinate at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes.
• Prepare a charcoal fire or heat a gas grill to medium-high, and oil the grates. Thread the chicken and fruit pieces onto separate skewers.
• Grill the skewered chicken for 3 to 4 minutes per side, turning once, or until the chicken is cooked through. Grill the fruit skewers for 2 minutes per side, turning once, or until you have visible grill marks. Remove the meat and fruit from the skewers and serve them over salad greens drizzled with the reserved marinade.
