Number Of Ingredients 8

8 jumbo head-on shrimp
1 stalk lemongrass, white and pale yellow parts only, thinly sliced on the diagonal
3 to 4 dried red chiles, such as bird's eye
1 teaspoon whole coriander seeds
4 to 6 cloves garlic, smashed
1/2 lime, thinly sliced, plus more for serving
1/2 cup neutral-tasting oil, such as safflower
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat grill to medium-high. (If using charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches about grates for just 3 to 4 seconds.) Remove shrimp from marinade, wiping off excess, and season with salt and pepper. Skewer shrimp from head to tail and grill until shell is slightly charred and shrimp are cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve hot with a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
