Description

A super simple, spicy, irresistible shrimp recipe. Anyone with a bowl, some skewers and a grill can make it. (This was one of those serendipitous moments of “gee I bet that would taste good” that worked out even better than expected.)

Ingredients

  • 1 pound 30-40 Count Large Shrimp
  • ¼ cups Lime Juice
  • 2 Tablespoons Green Curry Paste (Mae Ploy Is Widely Available)
  • Water, To Cover

Preparation

Peel the shrimp, and put them in a bowl.

Mix the lime juice and curry paste, pour over shrimp.

Add just enough water to barely cover shrimp.

If you cleverly used a tupperware-type bowl with a snap-on lid, you can now snap on the lid, and shake it to mix everything together. Otherwise, you’ll have to stir it around.

Then let it sit for an hour or two, so the flavors really blend and soak into the shrimp.

When the grill (or campfire, or whatever hot surface you have handy) is good and hot, thread the shrimp onto skewers, and cook them until they’re opaque and firm (usually 2–3 minutes per side).

My husband said, “Wow, that’s good!” I don’t have grill, so cooked them in a wok. this is so simple. Just remember to adjust the amount of curry paste to your own heat tolerance.
