Time 4h40m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large limes, juiced
2 tablespoons chili oil
1 teaspoon sea salt
20 peeled and deveined jumbo shrimp, tails still attached
20 wooden skewers
2 tablespoons raspberry vinegar
2 tablespoons white sugar
4 ounces fresh raspberries
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced

Steps:

  • Stir together the lime juice, chili oil, and sea salt in a mixing bowl until the salt dissolves. Cut the shrimp through the back vein nearly through to the other side, leaving the two sides attached. Toss the shrimp in the marinade, cover, and refrigerate 4 hours. Soak the wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes.
  • Make the raspberry dipping sauce by bringing the raspberry vinegar, sugar, and raspberries to a simmer in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir until the raspberries have lost their form and turned into a sauce. Scrape the raspberry mixture into a fine mesh strainer, and allow any excess liquid to drip away. Discard the liquid, and place the pulp into a small bowl. Stir in the minced jalapeno peppers to complete the dipping sauce.
  • Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
  • Remove the shrimp from the marinade, and thread one onto each soaked skewer. Wiggle the skewer through the shrimp so that the tails are pointing upwards. These should look like lollipops. Place the skewers onto a broiler pan.
  • Cook in the preheated oven until the shrimp start to look pink and a little toasty, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Serve with the raspberry dipping sauce.

The only thing I would change about this recipe is to use a bit less salt in the marinade. I found that the prawns were a bit too salty for my taste.

I was pleasantly surprised by how well the raspberry dipping sauce paired with the prawns. The sweetness of the raspberries complements the spiciness of the chili peppers perfectly.

The chili-lime marinade is genius! It gives the prawns a wonderful depth of flavor without overpowering the delicate seafood taste. I highly recommend using fresh limes for the best results.

This dish is a delightful explosion of flavors! The prawns are cooked to perfection, with a tender, succulent texture and a slightly smoky flavor from the grill. The chili-lime marinade adds a zesty, tangy kick that beautifully complements the sweetn
