BAHAMA SHRIMP SKEWERS
Rum, shrimps, pineapple...Just a few of the great flavors in this dish that remind you of a relaxing Summer vacation in the Islands :) I often adjust one of my recipes ( Recipe #367464 ) that I posted a while ago. But since it doesn't really resemble the original anymore I thought I'd post it as a seperate recipe. I never really measure when I cook, so these measurements are only estimates. You have to adjust the amounts depending on how spicy or sweet you like your shrimps. I get the best results using fresh ginger and lime juice but bottled works too. (Cook time includes marinating time) The perfect side dish would be Recipe #382390

Steps:
- Mix the first five ingredients in a bowl or zip top bag.
- Add all the spices, mix well, taste and adjust ingredients. Set a small amount of the marinade aside for basting later on.
- Add the shrimps, pineapple and veggies. Marinate in fridge for at least 3 hours.The longer the better.
- Put shrimps, pineapple and veggies onto skewers. If you use wooden ones, first soak them in lemon water to prevent burning.
- Grill on the BBQ for 12-15 minutes or until done. Keep turning and basting with the marinade you set aside earlier.
GRILLED SHRIMP SKEWERS WITH ROASTED RED PEPPER SAUCE
Fresh wild shrimp from the Gulf of Mexico (and the Atlantic coast off the Carolinas and Georgia) are the best option for shrimp lovers. Leave them in the shell, which keeps them juicy, before threading on skewers to grill. These are seasoned only with a little salt, then served with a spicy red pepper sauce that takes cues from the Catalan romesco.

Steps:
- Prepare a hot charcoal grill. Lay peppers directly on the grill and let them blister, turning frequently until blackened all over, about 8 minutes. Set aside on a plate until cool enough to handle. (Alternatively, roast peppers on the stovetop, directly on the flames of a gas burner.)
- Cut peppers in half lengthwise. Cut off stems, scrape away skins and seeds, and discard. Do not rinse; a bit of char is OK. Chop the peppers into 2-inch chunks.
- With a food processor or blender, whirl together peppers, almonds, pimentón, cayenne and garlic to form a rough paste. Season with salt and pepper. Slowly add olive oil to achieve the consistency of a thick milkshake. Taste, adjust seasoning and transfer to a serving bowl.
- In a medium saucepan, boil potatoes in well-salted water until just done, about 10 minutes. Drain.
- Place onion pieces on the grill skin-side down. Salt lightly. Cover with lid and cook until onions are soft, about 15 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
- Place boiled potatoes on grill and cook until slightly charred, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
- Meanwhile, thread shrimp onto skewers, 4 or 5 shrimp per skewer, without crowding. (If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water to prevent burning.) Brush lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
- Lay skewers on grill over hot coals. Cook for about 3 minutes, then flip and cook until shrimp turn pink and are a bit charred, 3 minutes more
- Arrange shrimp, potatoes and onions on a large platter. Serve with the red pepper sauce and lemon wedges.
GRILLED SHRIMP SKEWERS
Steps:
- Put the olive oil, garlic and chile flakes in a small skillet. Turn the heat to low and let the mixture heat for about 10 minutes; the oil should just barely simmer around the garlic in the last few minutes. Remove from the heat and cool slightly. Transfer to a blender, add the 1 tablespoon oregano and some salt and pepper, and blend until the garlic and oregano are finely chopped. Set aside half of the chile-garlic oil for serving.
- Heat the grill to high. Thread the shrimp onto skewers, about 4 or 5 shrimp per skewer, threading so that the skewers goes through the tail and thick end of each shrimp. Brush the shrimp with some of the chile-garlic oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until lightly golden brown on both sides and opaque, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer the skewers to a platter and immediately drizzle with some of the reserved chile-garlic oil (not the oil you used for brushing the raw shrimp). Garnish with oregano, and serve with more of the reserved oil.
