Cilantro Shrimp with Peanut Dip

List of Ingredients




2 pounds raw medium to large shrimp, peeled
2 cups lightly packed fresh cilantro sprigs
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt

The Sauce
1/4 cup chunky-style peanut butter
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 to 2 tablespoons water
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Put the shrimp in a bowl. In a blender puree the cilantro, lime juice, oil, and salt and stir it into the shrimp. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 8 hours. In a small bowl whisk together the ingredients for the sauce, adding enough water to reach the consistency of a thin mayonnaise. Preheat the broiler, with the oven rack set on the top level. Spread the shrimp in a single layer in a large jelly-roll pan and broil the shrimp for about 5 minutes, turning them once, until they are cooked through. Serve the shrimp with the peanut sauce.

Note: Alternatively the shrimp can be threaded onto skewers and grilled on a preheated oiled grill for the same amount of time.
