Mango Glazed Shrimp With Riced Cauliflower Recipes

CAULIFLOWER FRIED RICE WITH CURRIED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Season the shrimp lightly with salt and toss with 1 teaspoon curry powder. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the shrimp and cook until lightly browned around the edges and just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
• Add the remaining 3 tablespoons vegetable oil to the skillet along with the onion and scallion whites. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Stir in the almonds, ginger, garlic and remaining 1 teaspoon curry powder. Cook, stirring, until the almonds are lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Add the white rice, riced cauliflower and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, tossing and breaking up any clumps, until lightly toasted and heated through, about 3 minutes. Add the shrimp and toss until warmed through, about 1 minute; season with salt.
• Divide the fried rice and shrimp among bowls. Serve with sliced cucumber, mango chutney, plain yogurt and lime wedges. Top with the scallion greens.

SPICY GLAZED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Glaze: Place all ingredients in a bowl and place over boiling water until butter is melted. In a blender of a food processor, blend on high speed until the mixture becomes a smooth paste. Refrigerate overnight before use.
• For the shrimp: Make a small incision in the outside of the backside of the shrimp. Working with the shrimp's natural curvature, poke the tail of the shrimp up through the incision to expose the tail. Pull the tail completely through the whole so that the tail can easily serve as a toothpick.
• To assemble: Heat cooking oil in a large saute pan over high heat - cooking oil should coat the bottom of the pan. Add half the shrimp to the pan to cook. Move them around constantly so they will cook completely and evenly. Once the shrimp are fully cooked, add 2 heaping tablespoons of the glaze to the pan while moving the shrimp. Allow the glaze to evenly coat all the shrimp and lightly caramelize on the shrimp. Remove the shrimp from the pan. Wash the pan and repeat the process with the next 8 shrimp. Once all the shrimp have been cooked and glazed, garnish them individually with a basil leaf by sticking the leaf in through the incision made for the tail. Serve the shrimp warm or at room temperature.

MANGO GLAZED SHRIMP WITH CAULIFLOWER RICE RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons coconut oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chile and scallion whites and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the cumin seeds and cook until lightly toasted, 1 minute. Add the cauliflower and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, tossing occasionally, until tender but not browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside. Wipe out the skillet and add the remaining 1 tablespoon coconut oil over high heat. Add the shrimp and cook, turning once, until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes; remove to a plate. Reduce the heat to medium, add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the mango chutney and 1/2 cup water and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thick and syrupy, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, return the shrimp to the pan and toss to coat. Add the scallion greens, cashews, cilantro and lime zest to the cauliflower; toss well. Divide the cauliflower mixture and shrimp among plates; serve with lime wedges. Cook's Note
