SPICY LEMON-MARINATED SHRIMP

Steps:

Finely grind coriander seeds in an electric coffee/spice grinder. Whisk together zest, juice, coriander, vinegar, oil, water, sugar, chile flakes, and 6 tablespoons kosher salt in a large bowl until sugar and salt are dissolved.
• Bring an 8-qt. pot of water to a boil with pickling spices and remaining 2 tablespoons salt and cook shrimp, 2 lb. at a time, 1 1/2 minutes, or until just cooked through. Return water to a boil between batches. Transfer cooked shrimp with a slotted spoon to a colander to drain and add warm shrimp to marinade, tossing to coat.
• Cool shrimp slightly and divide among about 8 large sealable plastic bags with marinade. Stack bags in a large roasting pan, keeping shrimp in single layers. Marinate, chilled, turning bags occasionally, at least 8 hours.
• Drain shrimp before serving.

• 1 large lemon 1 1/2 teaspoons coriander seeds 3 tablespoons white-wine vinegar 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon water 1 tablespoon sugar 1 1/2 teaspoons dried Aleppo or New Mexican chile flakes or 1 tablespoon dried hot red pepper flakes 1 tablespoon plus 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt 2 tablespoons pickling spices 1 pound large (U 16/20) shrimp, shelled and deveined

SLOW SHRIMP WITH MARINATED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Marinated peppers: While shrimp are brining, prepare the pepper. Place pepper directly over a high gas flame; use tongs to rotate pepper until the entire surface is charred, about 10 minutes. (Alternatively, roast under the broiler, turning occasionally with tongs to char evenly.) Place charred pepper in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap; let rest to loosen skin, 15 minutes.
• Remove plastic wrap and place pepper on a work surface. Use a kitchen towel to gently rub off the charred skin. Tear pepper in half and discard the stem and seeds. Slice into ¼-inch strips, then cut strips into 1-inch segments. Set aside in a bowl.
• In a small saucepan over very low heat, add oil, thyme, bay leaf, garlic, and lemon peel. Heat until warm and aromatic, 5 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat and pour contents over peppers. Stir to make sure peppers are fully submerged, cover with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator, 6-12 hours. Makes 1½ cups. (Store in a lidded container in the refrigerator for 5-7 days.)
• Slow shrimp: Drain brined shrimp in a colander, then place on a towel and roll it up to dry the shrimp. Add shrimp, olive oil, and butter to a skillet. Turn heat to medium-low and start stirring, slowly rolling shrimp and butter around the pan. The shrimp should cook at around the same speed the butter melts. Cook until the shrimp are pink and the butter has completely melted into a thick, rich sauce, 6-7 minutes. Turn off heat and fold in two heaping tablespoons of drained peppers. Add lemon juice, stir to combine, and serve, garnished with additional peppers.
• In a bowl, add the water and salt; stir to dissolve salt. Add ice cubes, followed by the shrimp. Stir so shrimp are evenly distributed and allow to bring, 15 minutes.

SHRIMP WITH VANILLA

Steps:

• Place shrimp in a bowl, and add garlic, onion, 2 tablespoons vanilla, and the salt and pepper. Toss, then cover and refrigerate 2 hours.
• Heat butter and oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add jalapeño, and when it starts to soften, add shrimp and its marinade. Add remaining vanilla extract. Sauté, stirring, just until shrimp turn pink. Remove shrimp to a warm serving dish, and cover with foil.
• Add stock and wine to skillet and cook over high heat, stirring, about 5 minutes, until liquid is reduced and has thickened to consistency of light cream. Add lime juice, stir, then pour sauce over shrimp. Garnish dish with avocado slices, scatter cilantro on top, and serve with rice.

GRILLED SHRIMP WITH ANCHO PASILLA SAUCE

Steps:

• Soak skewers in water at least 30 minutes and up to several hours.
• Shell and devein shrimp. Holding 2 skewers parallel and slightly apart, thread 6 shrimp onto them (this will facilitate turning them on the grill). Thread remaining shrimp onto pairs of skewers in same manner. Brush both sides of shrimp with ancho pasilla sauce and discard any remaining sauce. Marinate shrimp, covered and chilled, at least 30 minutes and up to 6 hours.
• Prepare grill.
• Grill shrimp on a well-oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 2 minutes on each side, or until just cooked through. (Alternatively, shrimp may be broiled on rack of a broiler pan under a preheated broiler about 3 inches from heat 3 to 4 minutes on each side.)
• Remove shrimp from skewers and serve with accompaniments.

MARINATED GRILLED SHRIMP

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the garlic, olive oil, tomato sauce, and red wine vinegar. Season with basil, salt, and cayenne pepper. Add shrimp to the bowl, and stir until evenly coated. Cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour, stirring once or twice.
• Preheat grill for medium heat. Thread shrimp onto skewers, piercing once near the tail and once near the head. Discard marinade.
• Lightly oil grill grate. Cook shrimp on preheated grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until opaque.

PEPPER & VANILLA-MARINATED SHRIMP (PAPANTLA STYLE)

Steps:

• In a non-reactive bowl large enough to hold the shrimp, combine the onion, carrot, celery and garlic.
• Add 3 teaspoons of the vanilla extract and the white pepper; mix well (this will be a fairly "dry" marinade).
• Add the shrimp, and mix well, ensuring that each piece is covered with the marinade; refrigerate for 1 1/2 to 3 hours.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet with the olive oil and sauté the shrimp mixture, just until the shrimp are pink on both sides.
• During this sauté period, add the remaining 1 tsp vanilla extract and mix well into the pan juices.
• When the shrimp are pink, transfer them to a bowl (leave the vegetables in the skillet) and set aside.
• Add the wine and chicken broth to the skillet and simmer briskly and stirring occasionally until the liquid has reduced considerably and the sauce has thickened (about 20 minutes).
• Return the shrimp briefly to the sauce only just to re-heat them through.
• Serve all over mounded cooked rice.
