    Firecracker Shrimp

    sneezles posted 04-20-2001 11:40 PM


    List of Ingredients


    • 1 pound large shrimp
    • 1/4 cup minced green onion
    • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
    • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
    • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
    • 1 teaspoon grated tangerine zest
    • 1/2 cup hoisin sauce
    • 2 tablespoon thin soy sauce
    • 2 tablespoon honey
    • 1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
    • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
    • 1 tablespoon Asian chile sauce
    • 1 tablespoon white sesame seeds, lightly toasted


    Instructions


    1. Using scissors, cut the shrimp shells along the back and rinse away the veins, leaving the shell intact. In a bowl, combine all the remaining ingredients and stir well. Reserve 1/4 cup sauce to sprinkle over the shrimp after they are cooked.

    2. Using your fingers, insert the remaining sauce under the shells and marinate for 1 hour.

    3. If using a barbeque, gas-preheat to 350º; charcoal or wood, prepare a fire. When the grill is ready (woood or charcoal fire is ash-covered) brush the rack with oil and place the shrimp on it. Grill about 2 minutes on each side, brushing with more marinade throughout the cooking process, until the shells turn pink and the shrimp feel firm. Be sure not to overcook the shrimp. Remove from the grill and toss with the reserved marinade.
