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:

  • To ensure the shrimp is cooked evenly, use a large skillet or pan so that the shrimp can be spread out in a single layer.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan, or the shrimp will steam instead of sear.
  • If the shrimp is not fully cooked, it will be tough and rubbery. To check for doneness, cut into one of the shrimp. The flesh should be opaque and white, with no translucent or grayish areas.
  • For a sweeter glaze, add more honey or brown sugar to the sauce.
  • For a spicier glaze, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the sauce.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately, garnished with chopped parsley or cilantro.

Conclusion:

Honey glazed shrimp is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The shrimp is tender and juicy, and the glaze is sweet, savory, and slightly sticky. Serve the shrimp over rice, noodles, or roasted vegetables for a complete meal. You can also use the shrimp as an appetizer or in salads, tacos, or sandwiches.
