Number Of Ingredients 13

24 extra-large shrimp (1 1/2 pounds), peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 clove garlic, minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup dark rum
3 tablespoons Dijon-style mustard

1/4 teaspoon each cinnamon, ground cloves and black pepper
Pinch of salt
12 sugar cane swizzle sticks (see note)

Steps:

  • Place shrimp in a mixing bowl and stir in oil, lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper. Marinate 15 minutes while you prepare glaze and skewers.
  • Place ingredients for glaze in a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer until thick and syrupy, 4 to 6 minutes.
  • Cut swizzle sticks in half widthwise, and cut one end off each piece sharply on diagonal. Resulting skewers should be about 5 inches long and 1/4 inch wide.

Number Of Ingredients 20

FOR THE SHRIMP AND MARINADE:
24 shrimp, extra-large (1 1/2 pounds), peeled and deveined
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 scallion, both white and green parts, trimmed and minced
1 tablespoon ginger, minced fresh
1 jalapeno chiles, or 1/2 scotch bonnet chile, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons peanut oil
FOR THE RUM GLAZE:
1/3 cup rum, dark, plus 1 tablespoon
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons brown sugar, dark, firmly packed
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon white vinegar, distilled
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons hot sauce, such as tabasco
1/8 teaspoon allspice, ground
1/8 teaspoon cloves, ground
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Rinse the shrimp under cold running water, then drain and blot dry with paper towels. Set aside while you prepare the marinade.2. Combine the garlic, scallions, ginger, chile, soy sauce, honey, and peanut oil in a large bowl and whisk to mix. Add the shrimp, tossing to coat. Cover and let marinate, in the refrigerator, for 1 hour.3. Preheat the grill to high.4. While the shrimp marinates, prepare the sugarcane skewers. Peel the piece of sugarcane, using a sharp knife, then cut crosswise into 3-inch sections. Cut each section into 8 lengthwise strips, each about 1/4 inch wide (this will make 24 strips in all). Cut one end off each strip at an angle to make a sharp point. Set aside while you prepare the glaze.5. Combine the 1/3 cup rum, the tomato paste, sugar, honey, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco, allspice, and cloves in a small, heavy saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until blended and the sugar is melted. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer to a syrupy glaze, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon rum, and taste for seasoning, adding salt and pepper as necessary.6. Remove the shrimp from the bowl and make a "starter" hole through the center of each with a metal skewer, since the sugarcane strips are not stiff enough. Thread the shrimp on the cane strips, starting with the pointed end, 1 shrimp to each.7. When ready to cook, oil the grill grate. Arrange the shrimp on the hot grate and grill, turning with tongs, until nicely browned on the outside and firm and pink inside, about 2 minutes per side. Brush the shrimp with the glaze as they cook.8. Transfer the shrimp to serving plates or a platter and serve immediately.Serves 6 to 8 as an appetizer, 4 as an entrée

Shrimp Paste on Sugarcane image

The ingredients for shrimp paste are whirred in a food processor and then shaped around stalks of sugarcane in this updated version of a traditional Vietnamese appetizer.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 pounds medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/3 cup tightly packed cilantro leaves
2 garlic cloves
1 fresh red Thai chile, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
4 teaspoons Asian fish sauce
1 large egg white
1 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
Vegetable oil, for working
4 fresh sugarcane stalks, skin removed, flesh cut into 4-inch-long sticks, then quartered lengthwise
Green Papaya Salad (optional)
Lime-Chile Dipping Sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • Process shrimp, cilantro, garlic, chile, lime juice, fish sauce, egg white, and pepper in a food processor until a thick paste has formed. Transfer to a medium bowl. Chill in freezer 30 minutes.
  • With lightly oiled hands, shape 1 1/2 tablespoons shrimp paste into a ball; press ball onto center of a sugarcane stick, enclosing sugarcane but leaving ends exposed. Transfer to a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining sugarcane sticks and shrimp paste. Refrigerate 20 minutes.
  • Brush a bamboo or metal steamer basket with oil; place over boiling water in a wide saucepan or wok. Lay 8 sugarcane sticks in basket. Cover, and steam until shrimp paste just turns opaque, 5 to 6 minutes (be careful not to overcook). Transfer to a plate; let cool slightly. Repeat with remaining 8 sugarcane sticks.
  • Preheat broiler; heat a lightly oiled rimmed baking sheet until hot. Lay sugarcane sticks on preheated sheet. Broil until golden brown, about 2 minutes. (Alternatively, preheat a grill or grill pan until hot but not smoking; brush shrimp paste and sugarcane with oil, and grill, flipping once, until golden brown, about 1 minute per side.) Serve with papaya salad and lime-chile sauce if desired.

Tips:

  • Use large shrimp for this recipe, as they will hold up better on the skewers.
  • If you don't have sugar cane skewers, you can use bamboo skewers or metal skewers.
  • Soak the skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using, to prevent them from burning.
  • Season the shrimp generously with salt and pepper, and then toss them in the olive oil.
  • Grill the shrimp over medium-high heat, turning them once, until they are cooked through.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately, with the dipping sauce of your choice.

Conclusion:

Plantation shrimp on sugar cane skewers is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. The shrimp are grilled to perfection and have a slightly smoky flavor. The sugar cane skewers add a touch of sweetness and crunch. This dish is sure to please everyone at your next party or gathering.
