Hawaiian Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, or large zip-top bag, mix together the sugar, lemon pepper, parsley, garlic, oyster sauce, and mayonnaise. Add the shrimp, and toss well to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour to overnight.
• Preheat a grill for medium-high heat. Soak skewers in water.
• Thread shrimp onto skewers, and grill until they are pink and firm, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Separate garlic cloves into a bowl and place another bowl on top. Shake until all of the peels are knocked off the cloves, about 30 seconds, being careful not to shake too hard. Chop peeled cloves into relatively small pieces.
• Melt butter in a saute pan over medium heat and add chopped garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the garlic and butter into a small bowl and reserve.
• Pat thawed shrimp dry with paper towels and add to a large mixing bowl.
• Combine rice flour, paprika, cayenne, and salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the shrimp and use a large spoon or spatula to toss until completely coated.
• Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add some shrimp in a single layer and cook until browned and just barely cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Add some garlic butter and cook for another 30 seconds. Repeat with remaining shrimp and garlic butter. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Pulse the garlic in a food processor until finely chopped but not a paste, scraping down the sides as needed. Transfer to a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet, add the butter and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the garlic is a light golden color, about 5 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the garlic or it will become bitter. Immediately transfer to a large heatproof bowl and stir in the paprika, cayenne and 1 tablespoon2 teaspoons salt. Let the garlic butter cool to room temperature, about 20 minutes. Wipe out the skillet and set aside.
• Meanwhile, combine the cabbage, scallions and cucumber in a medium bowl. Add the rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons of the oil and a generous pinch of salt; toss to combine and set aside.
• Put the shrimp in the food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped but do not puree to a paste. Transfer to the garlic butter and stir to combine. Form the mixture into 9 patties, about 1/3 cup each. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the shrimp patties and cook until golden on both sides and cooked through, about 8 minutes.
• Split the slider buns and spread the tops and bottoms with mayonnaise. Put a patty on each of the bottom buns. Top with some cabbage slaw and close the sliders with the top buns.

Steps:

• Add the shrimp to a gallon size ziplock bag or medium size bowl with the olive oil, juice of 1 lemon, chopped garlic, 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, flour, cayenne pepper and pepper. Toss well to combine, seal the bag or cover the bowl and place in the fridge for 2 hours or up 24 hours.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot use a slotted spoon to scoop the shrimp out of the marinade and into the hot skillet, season with salt and pepper. Make sure to scoop up all the garlic as well. Saute the shrimp until pink, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp from the pan leaving the garlic in the skillet.
• Add the salted butter and 1/2 teaspoon pepper (or more or less to your taste) to the skillet. Cook the garlic in the butter until it begins to caramelize and turn golden brown. Remove from the heat and stir in 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, the juice of 1/2 a lemon and zest if using. Drizzle with the warm garlic butter over the shrimp. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
• Serve with steamed white rice, lemon wedge and a slice of pineapple, if desired.

Steps:

• SAUCE: mix together all ingredients and set aside.
• SHRIMP: Peel and devein shrimp, leaving the tails on.
• Rinse and drain.
• In Bowl 1, place 1/4 cup all-purpose flour.
• In Bowl 2, mix 1/2 cup self-rising flour with club soda to form a batter.
• In Bowl 3, place flaked coconut.
• Holding each shrimp by the tail, dip in flour to cover, then in batter, and lastly in coconut.
• Place each shrimp on waxed paper, repeating process until all shrimp are battered and covered in coconut.
• At this point you can cover and refrigerate for several hours if you like, making it a quick-cook dinner later that day or the next day.
• In hot oil, deep fry several shrimp for about 1-2 minutes until coconut is lightly golden brown.
• Drain on paper towels.
• Repeat process until all shrimp are cooked.
• Serve with Honey Mustard Sauce.
• Note: Spicy cocktail (tomato-based) sauce is not good with these shrimp.
