This recipe allows you to make a simple grilled (or broiled) shrimp then top dress it with some peanut sauce. We like to have it with steamed broccoli and then over some rice noodles. Toss the peanut sauce over the shrimp, brocc and noodles... very nice, simple, and fast (15 minutes from start to finish).
Ingredients:
- 1 lb of shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 Tbs of lime juice
- 2 Tbs of sesame oil
- 1/4 cup of peanut butter (natural if you can get it)
- 1/4 cup of orange juice
- 1 clove of garlic, minced
- 1 tsp of hot sauce
- 3 Tbs of ketchup (or to taste)
- Mix the lime juice and sesame oil together.
- Marinate the shrimp with the juice/oil for 2-8 hrs in the fridge.
- Mount the shrimp on skewers.
- Grill the shrimp, 2 minutes per side. Or... turn on the broiler for 5 minutes. Place the skewers over a 9x13 pan on the top shelf of the oven. Broil 2-3 minutes per side.
- In a small pan, heat up the peanut butter, orange juice, garlic, ketchup and hot sauce. Mix well until it has the consistency of a sauce.
- Take the shrimp off the skewers and drizzle the peanut sauce over it.
