SPICY GRILLED SHRIMP WITH CUCUMBER CILANTRO RICE



Spicy Grilled Shrimp with Cucumber Cilantro Rice image

My mom's shrimp is one of my favorite Aussie recipes. The marinade is a lovely mix of honey, spices, citrus and fresh herbs, so for this version, I took those same building blocks and gave the dish a different flavor profile. Pair the shrimp with herbaceous cucumber cilantro rice and you've got a complete meal.

Time 1h15m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 tablespoons honey
1 1/2 tablespoons chili sauce (such as Heinz)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 red onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon ancho chile powder
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
8 wooden skewers
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 cup long-grain rice
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups chicken broth, heated until hot
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups chopped cucumber
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons finely chopped scallions
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar

Steps:

  • For the shrimp: Combine all of the ingredients except the shrimp in a medium bowl; whisk together. Add the shrimp and toss to combine. Let marinate in the fridge for 1 to 2 hours, if time allows. Meanwhile, soak the skewers in water so they don't burn on the grill.
  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat or a grill pan for high heat. Thread about 4 shrimp onto each skewer, reserving the marinade for basting. Grill the shrimp until just firm, brushing with the marinade, 1 to 2 minutes per side (up to 3 minutes per side, if using a grill pan).
  • For the rice: In a medium pot, melt the butter over medium heat and add the rice and garlic. Cook, stirring, until the rice smells a little nutty and is opaque, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and increase the heat to high. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover and cook the rice according to the package directions (usually 15 to 25 minutes). Fluff the rice with a fork then fold in the cucumber, cilantro, scallions, olive oil and vinegar. Taste for seasoning.
  • Serve the rice with the shrimp skewers.

SPICY SHRIMP WITH RICE

This is a VERY easy recipe - and delicious! I modified the original recipe to be more low-salt-friendly. This recipe is diet friendly and inexpensive to make! I use the frozen, cooked shrimp rings and toss the coctail sauce it come with; or the bags of salad shrimp in the frozen food section.
