GRILLED SHRIMP WITH WILTED SPINACH AND PEACHES



Grilled Shrimp With Wilted Spinach and Peaches image

The first principle of Indian spice cookery (and of spices in general) is that spices are best when bought whole and ground fresh, as happens in this recipe. Toasting and then grinding the spices - peppercorns, coriander, mustard seeds and cardamom pods - used for the spice rub helps to even out their flavors so that they blend with the mild flavor of the shrimp. Serve them over fresh ripe peaches and tender spinach wilted by a hot mixture of ginger, vinegar, orange juice and curry powder.

Time 40m

Yield 4 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon white peppercorns (you may substitute black)
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
1 tablespoon mustard seeds
5 green cardamom pods
1 pound 16- to 20-count (extra large) shrimp, peeled and deveined but tail left on
Kosher salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup orange juice
1 teaspoon curry powder
2 ripe but firm peaches, diced medium
1 pound spinach, washed

Steps:

  • Build a fire in your grill; when the coals are covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium-hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 3 to 4 seconds) you are ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn all burners to high, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes, then turn burners to medium-high.)
  • Meanwhile, put the peppercorns, coriander seeds, mustard seeds and cardamom pods in a small sauté pan and toast over medium heat, shaking frequently to avoid burning, until they begin to darken slightly and you can smell them, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, allow to cool slightly, then grind fine in a spice mill or mortar.
  • Sprinkle shrimp generously with salt and pepper, then rub all over with the spice mixture, pressing gently to be sure it adheres. Set shrimp aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a small sauté pan over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the ginger and cook, stirring frequently, 1 minute. Add the vinegar, orange juice, curry powder and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes.
  • Put the peaches and spinach in a medium bowl. Pour hot dressing over them, wilting the spinach.
  • Place the shrimp on the grill and cook until just opaque throughout, 3 to 4 minutes a side. (To check for doneness, cut into one shrimp and peek inside.) Divide the spinach-peach mixture among four plates and top each with 1/4 of the shrimp.

EXOTIC GRILLED SHRIMP WITH WILTED SPINACH AND PEACHES



EXOTIC GRILLED SHRIMP WITH WILTED SPINACH AND PEACHES image

Categories     Shellfish     Dinner

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon white peppercorns (you may substitute black)
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
1 tablespoon mustard seeds
5 green cardamom pods
1 pound 16- to 20-count (extra large) shrimp, peeled and deveined but tail left on
Kosher salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup orange juice
1 teaspoon curry powder
2 ripe but firm peaches, diced medium
1 pound spinach, washed.

Steps:

  • 1. Build a fire in your grill; when the coals are covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium-hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 3 to 4 seconds) you are ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn all burners to high, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes, then turn burners to medium-high.) 2.

(To check for doneness, cut into one shrimp and peek inside.) Divide the spinach-peach mixture among four plates and top each with 1/4 of the shrimp.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cooked shrimp. Pre-cooked shrimp can be found in the freezer section of most grocery stores.
  • If you are using fresh shrimp, be sure to devein and peel them before cooking.
  • To get the best flavor, marinate the shrimp in the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and thyme for at least 30 minutes before grilling.
  • When grilling the shrimp, cook them over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through.
  • To make the wilted spinach, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and cook until it is wilted, about 2 minutes.
  • To make the pea puree, cook the peas in boiling water for about 2 minutes, or until they are tender. Drain the peas and then mash them with a fork or potato masher.
  • To serve, place the grilled shrimp on a bed of wilted spinach and pea puree. Drizzle with the lemon-herb vinaigrette and garnish with fresh herbs.

Conclusion:

Grilled shrimp with wilted spinach and peaches is a delicious and healthy summer dish. The shrimp are grilled to perfection and the wilted spinach and peaches add a touch of sweetness and freshness. This dish is perfect for a light lunch or dinner and can be easily made ahead of time.
