GRILLED SHRIMP WITH SALSA VERDE
The sauce in this recipe is ubiquitous along Italy's western coast, where I ate it spooned over a thinly sliced fish steak titled Pesce Spada alla Griglia. It is best enjoyed when the freshest seafood and produce are available. The sauce can be made in advance and the shrimp broiled or grilled just before the meal. From the book "Lucinda's Rustic Italian Kitchen," by Lucinda Scala Quinn (Wiley).

Tips:
- Choose fresh, high-quality shrimp. Look for shrimp that are firm, translucent, and have a slight briny smell. Avoid shrimp that are slimy, discolored, or have an unpleasant odor.
- Clean the shrimp properly. Peel and devein the shrimp before cooking. To devein the shrimp, make a shallow incision down the back of the shrimp and remove the black vein.
- Marinate the shrimp before grilling. Marinating the shrimp in a flavorful marinade will help to enhance their flavor and prevent them from drying out during grilling.
- Grill the shrimp over medium-high heat. This will help to cook the shrimp quickly and evenly without overcooking them.
- Do not overcrowd the grill. If the shrimp are too crowded, they will not cook evenly and may steam instead of grill.
- Cook the shrimp until they are opaque and slightly pink in the center. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
- Serve the shrimp immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or salsa.
