Galveston Shrimp Kisses With Caramelized Pineapple Coulis Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Heat vegetable oil to 350 degrees.
• 2. Clean and devain 1 pound of jumbo shrimp. Slice each shrimp down the center using the sand vein as your guide, careful not to cut all the way through. Also known as butterflying.
• 3. Slice cheese in approx. 1/4 inches thick so that you have one piece of cheese for each shrimp. Place one slice of cheese into each shrimp where you butterflied it.
• 4. Wrap each stuffed shrimp with a slice of bacon, securing it with a toothpick.
• 5. Fry the finished shrimp for approximately 3-5 minutes or until bacon is crispy and shrimp is pink. Drain on paper towels. Enjoy! :o)

Steps:

• Cook rice noodles according to package directions.
• Meanwhile, toss shrimp and pineapple in a large bowl; season with salt. Add soy sauce and ginger and toss again to coat.
• Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Using tongs, pluck out just the pineapple and cook, stirring often, until well browned on all sides, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add shrimp to same skillet and cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until pink and opaque, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to plate with pineapple.
• Cook pineapple juice and chili-garlic sauce in same skillet over medium-high heat, scraping up browned bits with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon and stirring occasionally, until reduced by half and slightly syrupy, 12-16 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in pineapple-shrimp mixture and 1 cup basil.
• Divide rice noodles among bowls. Spoon pineapple-shrimp mixture over noodles and drizzle with extra sauce. Top with cucumbers, onion, peanuts, and more basil. Serve with lime wedges alongside for squeezing over.

Steps:

• In a food processor or blender, combine peanut butter, coconut milk, 3 tablespoons hot water, lime juice, sugar, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sriracha and a pinch of salt. Purée until smooth. Add more lime juice and or salt to taste. Scrape into a bowl.
• Heat oven to 500 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk together peanut oil, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and red-pepper flakes. Thread shrimp on skewers; brush all over with half the peanut oil mixture. Thread pineapple on separate skewers; brush with remaining oil mixture. Arrange shrimp and pineapple skewers on a large rimmed baking sheet.
• Roast skewers, turning them halfway through, until shrimp is opaque, about 5 minutes, and pineapple is lightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. (Use an oven mitt to remove shrimp skewers as they finish cooking but leave the pineapple in for longer). Sprinkle skewers with herbs and serve hot, with peanut sauce for dipping.
