Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h1m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

24 large shrimp, peeled and de-veined with the tails left on
1 tablespoon chopped lemongrass
1 tablespoon chopped ginger
2 cloves chopped garlic
5 scallions, whites cut into 1 1/2-inch lengths and greens chopped
1/4 cup light soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 red bell pepper, seeds and stem removed, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
Peanut oil, for drizzling
1 small head radicchio, nice outer leaves removed and reserved, rest chiffonade
1 bunch watercress, cleaned
1 lime

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill to high.
  • In a large, nonreactive bowl, combine the lemongrass, ginger, garlic, scallion greens, soy sauce, sesame oil, and honey and whisk well. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for 15 to 30 minutes.
  • Skewer the shrimp, scallion whites, and red bell peppers onto skewers in whatever order you like. There should be 4 to 6 shrimp per skewer.
  • Place the skewers on a flat plate and drizzle with peanut oil. It is not necessary to salt the skewers because soy sauce has so much salt in it. Place the shrimp skewers on the grill and cook about 3 minutes per side, or just until the shrimp curls, turns red and does not appear clear at all. Be careful not to overcook.
  • Place the whole radicchio leaves around the edge of a platter. Mound the chiffonade radicchio and watercress inside the leaves and around the platter. Remove the skewers from the grill and place on the bed of greens. Squeeze the juice of a lime over the shrimp.

SIMPLE THAI-STYLE LEMONGRASS SHRIMP SOUP



Simple Thai-style Lemongrass Shrimp Soup image

You won't believe how easy and good it is. Try this and you may never be able to eat a shrimp soup in a Thai restaurant again. This is a blend of two recipes from a really good Thai cookbook, adapted to use easier-to-find ingredients (as recommended in the book, ginger instead of galangal, lime juice instead of lime leaves) and simplified a little. You can make it also with thinly sliced chicken breast instead of shrimp if you add the chicken about the time you add mushrooms and tomatoes and cook everything for a bit longer.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 stalk lemongrass
6 slices gingerroot
1 lime
2 small red chilies
4 cups water
4 tablespoons fish sauce
1 teaspoon chili paste with garlic
6 ounces tomatoes, cut into chunks
4 ounces mushrooms, sliced (I use white or baby bella)
25 small cooked shrimp
2 tablespoons cilantro

Steps:

  • Cut off the dry end and a few top leaves of the lemongrass stem.
  • Bruise the stem with the handle of a knife and cut into 1-inch long pieces.
  • Reserve.
  • Bruise the chilies, cut them in half, scoop out and discard the seeds.
  • Reserve the chilies.
  • Bring the water to boil.
  • Add lemongrass and ginger, and squeeze out half the lime into the water.
  • Boil 2-3 minutes.
  • Add fish sauce and chili-garlic paste.
  • Cook for another minute.
  • Add tomatoes and mushrooms.
  • Cook for 2-3 minutes (or longer, until it boils and the tomatoes start to fall apart).
  • Squeeze the other half of the lime into the soup.
  • Take off the heat.
  • Add the chilies and let stand a few seconds, then add the shrimp.
  • Garnish with cilantro and serve immediately.
  • Leave lemongrass, ginger and chilies in the soup and either try to pour the soup without them, or, better, pour the soup with chunks of lemongrass and ginger in it and warn your guests not to eat these.
  • They do add flavour when left in the soup while you eat it.

Lemon-Grass-Ginger Soup With Mushrooms image

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     easy, quick, weekday, soups and stews, appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 cups chicken stock
3 stalks lemon grass
4 nickel-size slices ginger
3 or 4 small hot chilies, minced
2 tablespoons nam pla (fish sauce), or to taste
6 to 8 ounces roughly chopped oyster mushrooms
2 teaspoons minced lime leaves or lime zest
Juice of 1 lime
1/4 cup minced cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Heat the stock over medium heat. Trim two of the lemon-grass stalks of their toughest outer layers, then bruise them with the back of a knife; cut them into sections, and add them to the stock with the ginger and about 1/4 of the minced chilies. Simmer for about 15 minutes, longer if you have the time. Peel all the hard layers off the remaining stalk of lemon grass, and mince its tender inner core.
  • When you're ready to eat the soup, remove the lemon grass and ginger. Add 1 tablespoon nam pla and the chopped mushrooms. Taste the broth, and add more chilies if you like, as well as some salt if necessary. In the bottom of each of 4 warmed bowls, sprinkle a little each of the chile, lime leaves or zest, lime juice, cilantro and minced lemon grass.
  • Ladle the soup into the bowls and add a teaspoon of nam pla to each bowl. Serve piping hot.
