Grilled Coconut Shrimp image

A shrimp cocktail that is Asian in flavour. You can roast the shrimps in a 500ºF (260ºC) oven for 5 minutes or grill them on the barbecue or under the broiler. Prep time includes marinating time. Another winner from my current favourite Chef, Lucy Waverman.

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

13 ounces coconut milk
2 teaspoons green curry paste
1 tablespoon chopped gingerroot
1 tablespoon grated lime rind
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 tablespoons chopped of fresh mint
2 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 lb large shrimp
salt
1/4 cup unsweetened coconut

Steps:

  • Place coconut milk in a skillet and bring to boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes until reduced by a quarter - it should be the consistency of heavy cream. Stir in the green curry paste, ginger, lime leaves, fish sauce and sugar. Cook another 5 to 6 minutes or until sauce is thickened and fragrant.
  • Stir in 1 tbsp each of mint and coriander and all of lime juice. Cool.
  • Divide sauce in half in 2 bowls. Season shrimp with salt and stir into half of sauce.
  • Marinate shrimp in sauce for 30 minutes. Reserve other half of sauce for dipping sauce.
  • Remove shrimps from marinade and discard marinade.
  • Preheat grill on high and grill shrimps about 1½ minutes per side or until pink and slightly curled. Cool. Stir in coconut and remaining mint and coriander to dipping sauce. Serve with shrimps.
  • Place shrimps on bamboo skewers, if desired.

I'm allergic to coconut, so I substituted almond flour for the coconut in the coating. The shrimp were still delicious!

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I decided to try this recipe anyway. I'm glad I did because the shrimp were surprisingly delicious. The coconut coating was subtle and didn't overpower the flavor of the shrimp.
