ROASTED SPICED SHRIMP ON WILTED SPINACH
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Leaving shells intact, pull legs off shrimp and with a sharp knife halve shrimp lengthwise. Arrange shrimp, shell sides down, in one layer in a shallow baking pan. In a small bowl stir together chili powder and salt and sprinkle evenly over shrimp. Shrimp may be prepared up to this point 3 hours ahead and chilled, covered.
- Discard stems from spinach and diagonally cut scallions into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Drizzle shrimp with lime juice and roast in middle of oven until just cooked through, about 5 minutes.
- In a large nonstick skillet bring water with gingerroot to a simmer over moderate heat and add spinach. Cook spinach, stirring, until slightly wilted, about 20 seconds. Remove skillet from heat and immediately stir in scallions and oil until combined well. Season spinach with salt and pepper.
- Mound spinach in center of each of 4 plates and arrange shrimp halves around it. Serve shrimp and spinach with lime wedges.

WILTED SPINACH WITH NUTMEG
After rinsing the spinach, leave some water clinging to the leaves. This will help the spinach wilt evenly in the pan, without becoming too soft. Try serving with Pork Chops with Apples and Shallots.

GRILLED SHRIMP WITH WILTED SPINACH AND PEACHES
The first principle of Indian spice cookery (and of spices in general) is that spices are best when bought whole and ground fresh, as happens in this recipe. Toasting and then grinding the spices - peppercorns, coriander, mustard seeds and cardamom pods - used for the spice rub helps to even out their flavors so that they blend with the mild flavor of the shrimp. Serve them over fresh ripe peaches and tender spinach wilted by a hot mixture of ginger, vinegar, orange juice and curry powder.

Steps:
- Build a fire in your grill; when the coals are covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium-hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 3 to 4 seconds) you are ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn all burners to high, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes, then turn burners to medium-high.)
- Meanwhile, put the peppercorns, coriander seeds, mustard seeds and cardamom pods in a small sauté pan and toast over medium heat, shaking frequently to avoid burning, until they begin to darken slightly and you can smell them, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, allow to cool slightly, then grind fine in a spice mill or mortar.
- Sprinkle shrimp generously with salt and pepper, then rub all over with the spice mixture, pressing gently to be sure it adheres. Set shrimp aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a small sauté pan over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the ginger and cook, stirring frequently, 1 minute. Add the vinegar, orange juice, curry powder and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes.
- Put the peaches and spinach in a medium bowl. Pour hot dressing over them, wilting the spinach.
- Place the shrimp on the grill and cook until just opaque throughout, 3 to 4 minutes a side. (To check for doneness, cut into one shrimp and peek inside.) Divide the spinach-peach mixture among four plates and top each with 1/4 of the shrimp.

Steps:
- In a medium skillet, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and heat until a slight shimmer occurs on the surface. In a separate bowl combine the shrimp, 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the sweet ginger garlic seasoning, tossing lightly until shrimp are thoroughly coated. Add the shrimp to the hot skillet, quickly sautééing until they are cooked and turn opaque. Pour in wine to quickly bubble and deglaze the skillet, scraping up the delicious brown "bits" on the bottom. Remove shrimp to a small bowl and cover to keep warm. In the same skillet, add in the final 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil and toss in the spinach or kale, quickly stirring until the leaves are just wilted. Throw the shrimp back in for a final "toss", then plate up on a small serving dish.

Steps:

- If you don't have white wine on hand, you can substitute chicken broth or water.
