Tropical grilled shrimp for weekend menu

Tropical grilled shrimp

Tropical grilled shrimp served with peanut sauce will make a great start to the meal. You can grill the shrimp on a barbecue or grill them indoors if the weather is bad, both of which will result in a great finish.

Serve them with cucumber and chili salad and add hot rice to make them a main dish if you like.

Use for peanut sauce

– 2 cloves of garlic

– 1/2 teaspoon chopped red chili ớt

– juice of 1/2 lemon

– 2 teaspoons soy sauce

– 5 tablespoons crispy roasted peanut butter

– 1 teaspoon brown sugar

Processing:

Marinated shrimp

Whisk together the oil, lemon juice, ginger and garlic. Then add sugar, chili powder, finely chopped coriander, soy sauce, salt, and pepper to taste and stir to mix.

– You soak 8 bamboo skewers in water for about 30 minutes, then string about 4 shrimps on each skewers and place them in a shallow food tray. (If using metal skewers, marinate shrimp before skewering)

– Pour the prepared sauce over the shrimp. Then place in the refrigerator for about 1-2 hours, flipping occasionally.

Make peanut sauce

– Heat oil in a small saucepan. Add the onion and cook, stirring for about 2-3 minutes, until slightly golden, then add the chopped garlic and red pepper; Cook until the onion is golden brown, but remember not to let the garlic turn brown, it will be bitter.

– Add lemon juice and soy sauce to the onion mixture; Stir until the spices are evenly combined. Next, melt the peanut butter and brown sugar on the stove. Then let it cool until it reaches room temperature.

– Beat coconut milk until smooth. Then, measure the required amount and pour in the peanut sauce. Stir well until the sauce is a bit thick.

– Preheat the oven to bake with oil. Transfer shrimp from the pan to the baking rack. Rotate the skewers evenly in the sauce. Bake them for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink. Occasionally brush the sauce over the shrimp during the baking process. Continue grilling until shrimp are pink on the other side, about 2-3 minutes more.

– Place the barbecue on a plate, add a small bowl of peanut sauce attached. Squeezing some lemon juice over shrimp is also a great way to enjoy this dish.
