GRILLED SHRIMP WITH SPICY VEG NOODLES
The sweet-salty-sour dressing in this fresh salad does double duty. Inspired by the combination of fish sauce, lime juice and garlic in the Vietnamese dipping sauce nuoc cham, it's whisked with rice vinegar and vegetable oil. The result works both as a marinade for shrimp and a tenderizing dressing for the zucchini and carrot noodles.

Steps:
- In a measuring cup, combine the fish sauce, lime juice, oil and vinegar and whisk together. Whisk in the sugar, garlic and jalapeno. Pour half into a medium bowl and half into a large bowl. Add the shrimp to the medium bowl and toss.
- Heat a cast-iron grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the shrimp until they are pink and opaque, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from heat and set aside. Add the carrots, and cucumbers, zucchinis and beets to the dressing and toss until very coated. Fold in the mint, cilantro and scallions. Sprinkle with the peanuts and top with the grilled shrimp. Serve immediately.
MICROWAVE SWEET AND SPICY CARROTS WITH SCALLIONS
This simple carrot side gets a dose of sweetness from a dash of brown sugar and unrefined coconut oil (unrefined is key, as it has not been whitened or deodorized, so it keeps its mellow coconut flavor in recipes). Top the potassium-rich carrots with grilled shrimp for a quick weeknight dinner.

Steps:
- Cut the carrots using a roll-cut: one carrot at a time, slice diagonal chunks from the carrot, rolling it a quarter-turn between cuts to create faceted bite-size pieces.
- Combine the coconut oil, brown sugar, cumin, crushed red pepper and 1 teaspoon salt in an 8-inch square baking dish. Microwave on high until just melted, about 30 seconds. Stir in the vinegar and carrots. Cover with a vented lid or plastic wrap with 6 small holes poked in it.
- Microwave on high for 5 minutes. Uncover, being careful to avoid the steam, and give the carrots a stir. Cover again and microwave on high, stirring every 5 minutes, until the carrots are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid, about 10 more minutes. Uncover and stir in all but 1 teaspoon of the scallions. Transfer to a serving dish, top with the reserved scallions and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Lightly dust the julienned carrot with the flour and shake off any excess. Heat the oil in a skillet and fry the carrot until crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside.
- If making your own carrot juice, put the 10 carrots through a juice extractor. This should yield 2 cups of juice.
- In a saucepan, combine the carrot juice, spices and lemon juice. Whisk in 4 tablespoons of the butter. Bring to a boil and remove from the heat. Keep warm.
- In a large saute pan, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and saute 1 1/2 minutes per side or until thoroughly pink. Season with salt and cayenne pepper. Arrange 8 shrimp in each of four soup plates and pour sauce over them (see note). Garnish each with bits of julienned carrot and chopped chervil.

GINGER-ORANGE ROASTED CARROT SOUP WITH SPICY SHRIMP
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Put the carrot disks on a cookie sheet, drizzle them with a little EVOO, and season them with salt and pepper. Toss the carrots around to make sure they are well coated. Spread in an even layer then roast them for 15 minutes, or until they are tender and the bottoms are browned. Stir the carrots at least twice while they roast so they cook evenly. Zest the orange and reserve.
- In a shallow dish, combine the juice of half of the orange with the hot sauce, 2 tablespoons of the EVOO, and a little salt. Add the shrimp and toss to coat; set aside for a few minutes.
- Preheat a soup pot over medium-high heat with 2 tablespoons of the EVOO, twice around the pan. Add the onions, ginger, garlic, curry powder, and salt and pepper to the pot and cook until the onions are tender and lightly colored, about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. If you find the onions are browning before they are getting tender, add a splash of water. Transfer the cooked onions to a blender or food processor, where they can wait for the carrots to finish roasting. Return the soup pot to the cooktop, add the chicken stock, and bring it up to a simmer.
- When the carrots are roasted, transfer them to the blender or food processor where the onions are patiently waiting. Add a little ladle of the hot chicken stock and puree until the vegetables are smooth. Start by pulse-grinding the mixture to get it going and then let 'er rip. Add more hot stock, bit by bit, until it incorporates. Careful, sometimes when blending hot things the blender or food processor top is not tight enough and you can get splashed: put a kitchen towel over the lid for extra safety. (Hot carrot puree is not a home facial technique!) Add the carrot-onion puree to the bubbling stock and stir to combine, then let the soup gently simmer while you cook the shrimp.
- Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining tablespoon of EVOO. Drain the shrimp and cook them on each side for 2 to 3 minutes, or until cooked through. Add the parsley and toss.
- Check the soup consistency. If you want it thicker let it simmer a little bit longer; if you want it less thick, add a couple splashes of chicken stock to thin it out. Add the orange zest, stir it to combine, then taste and check for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper.
- Ladle some soup into shallow serving bowls and arrange 3 shrimp in the center of each bowl, standing up if you can manage it.

Tips:
- To make the tastiest shrimp, choose fresh and large ones. Smaller shrimp tend to be less flavorful and have a tougher texture.
- If you don't have access to fresh shrimp, frozen shrimp can also be used. Just thaw them completely before cooking.
- To remove the shrimp's vein, make a shallow incision along the back of the shrimp and use a toothpick or paring knife to pull it out.
- Don't overcook the shrimp. They should be cooked just until they turn pink and opaque, which takes only a few minutes.
- For the best flavor, use a variety of spices in the carrot juice marinade. Some good options include cumin, coriander, paprika, and cayenne pepper.
- If you don't have time to marinate the shrimp in the carrot juice, you can simply add the spices to the pan when you're cooking them.
- Serve the shrimp immediately after cooking, while they're still hot and juicy.
Conclusion:
Shrimp in spiced carrot juice is a delicious and healthy dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer or main course. The shrimp are tender and flavorful, and the carrot juice marinade gives them a unique and slightly sweet flavor. This dish is also very easy to make, and it can be ready in under 30 minutes. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy seafood dish, give shrimp in spiced carrot juice a try. You won't be disappointed!
