Grilled Shrimp Escabeche Recipes

Steps:

• Toss together onion, vinegar, oregano, and 1 teaspoon salt in a shallow glass or ceramic dish.
• Simmer oil, bay leaves, garlic, and peppercorns in a small saucepan 10 minutes, then let stand until ready to use.
• Add shrimp to a medium pot of boiling salted water (2 tablespoons salt for 4 quarts water), then remove from heat and let stand, uncovered, until just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Drain well, then stir into onion mixture along with oil mixture.
• Chill shrimp in escabeche, covered when cool, stirring occasionally, at least 12 hours. Discard bay leaves and serve shrimp cold or at room temperature.

Steps:

• For the marinade: Combine coconut milk, lime juice, salt, sugar and vinegar in a bowl and mix well.
• For the escabeche: Preheat a grill to medium heat.
• Grill the tomatillos until well caramelized and soft, then chop. Grill the corn in the husks, then shuck and slice kernels from the cobs. (Keep the grill on.)
• Place shrimp in a bowl and sprinkle with olive oil and salt and pepper. Place shrimp on the grill and cook until caramelized and pink but still not cooked all the way through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Pull from grill and let cool. Carefully slice shrimp lengthwise down the back. Add shrimp to a large bowl, then add the tomatillos, corn, chiles, cilantro, onion and marinade. Mix thoroughly and immediately serve.

Steps:

• Heat your grill to high.
• Toss the shrimp in a bowl with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper.
• Grill the shrimp for 1 to 2 minutes per side or until just cooked through.
• Transfer shrimp to a clean medium bowl.
• Heat 1/3 cup olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
• When oil is hot, add the onion, garlic, and serrano chiles and cook until soft.
• Add the cumin and mustard seeds, if using, and cook for 1 minute.
• Add the vinegar, bay leaves, a pinch of red pepper flakes, if using, and cilantro and bring to a boil.
• Remove from the heat and immediately pour over the shrimp and stir to coat.
• Let cool to room temperature, cover, and then refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight, stirring a few times during that time.
• Transfer the escabeche, with a slotted spoon, to a platter and garnish with sliced radishes and torn cilantro.

Steps:

• Heat your grill to high.
• Place the shrimp in a large bowl. Toss the shrimp with the oil and season with the salt and pepper.
• Place the shrimp on the grates of the grill in an even layer and grill until golden brown and slightly charred, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Turn the shrimp over and continue grilling until just cooked through, 45 seconds to 1 minute longer. Remove the shrimp to a platter.

Steps:

• Combine marinade ingredients in a large plastic zipper bag; add swordfish steaks and refrigerate at least one hour.
• Prepare sauce: combine all sauce ingredients together in a saute pan and simmer together 15 minutes, or until sauce is slightly thickened (it should remain a little thin, just not watery).
• REMEMBER TO REMOVE THE BAY LEAF BEFORE SERVING.
• Meanwhile, prepare your grill.
• Remove swordfish steaks from marinade (discarding marinade) and grill about 5 minutes on both sides.
• To serve, top with sauce.
• This is good with rice and a fruity spinach salad!

Steps:

• Prepare a charcoal grill for two-zone cooking over medium-high heat by pouring the coals onto one half of the grill. For a gas grill, heat all of the burners to medium-high, then turn off one of the end burners before cooking.
• While the grill heats, pat the salmon dry, and set aside to air-dry. In a metal 3-quart dish (like a 9-by-13-inch pan), large (12-inch) oven-safe skillet or a disposable aluminum pan, stir together the lime juice, vinegar, oil and sugar. Add the fennel, thyme and garlic. Season generously with salt and pepper, and stir to combine.
• When your grates are heating (or on a gas grill, when your grill is nearing temperature), put the dish over indirect heat (where there aren't any coals or where the burner is turned off). Cover the grill and let the fennel mixture warm until the grill reaches temperature, about 5 minutes.
• When you're ready to grill, season the salmon all over with salt and lightly coat with olive oil. Take the salmon, a tightly folded paper towel soaked with olive oil, a fish spatula and a rimmed baking sheet to the grill. Using gloved hands, transfer the dish of pickled fennel to the baking sheet (or another heat-safe surface, like concrete).
• Clean the grates with a grill brush, then oil the grates with the paper towel. Add the salmon skin-side down over direct heat (above the flame). Cover the grill and cook until the skin is browned and releases easily from the grates and the flesh is opaque three-quarters of the way up the sides, 3 to 6 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fish. Check the fish often and move it around the fire to avoid flare-ups.
• As the fish finishes, nestle it skin-side up among the pickled fennel. Let sit for 5 minutes or up to 30, until the fish is cooked through. Eat with the pickled fennel. Leftovers can be refrigerated and eaten cold or at room temperature the next day. (Remove the skin as it will be soggy at this point.)

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper and cook over high heat for 1 minute. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are cooked through, about 2 more minutes. Stir in the orange juice, 2 tablespoons of the lime juice, the scallion and cilantro, transfer to a bowl and let cool.
• Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons lime juice with the ginger, sesame oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Brush the pineapple with the mixture and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• In a dry skillet, toast the sesame seeds over high heat, shaking the pan, until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
• Light a grill or preheat the broiler. Grill or broil the pineapple for about 2 minutes per side, turning once, until lightly browned. Cut each quarter crosswise into 6 pieces and arrange the pieces on 6 plates. Set 2 shrimp on each plate, spoon on a little of the orange juice marinade and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
