Shrimp Molokai Recipes

Steps:

• For the short ribs: Combine the brown sugar, soy sauce and a pinch black pepper in a large braising pan and bring to a boil over high heat. Add the garlic and onions and boil for 2 minutes.
• Cut the beef short ribs into 3-ounce, 2-inch flat squares. Brown them on a preheated flat top griddle. Then add the short ribs to the braising liquid. Simmer until the ribs are tender enough to melt in your mouth, about 2 hours.
• For the shrimp: Heat a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F. Dust the shrimp with garlic powder, then deep fry until light golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Toss with the garlic butter, garlic salt to taste and green onions.
• Plate the short ribs and garlic butter shrimp with white rice and Molokai sweet potato salad. Swirl some teriyaki sauce over garlic aioli in a ramekin. Garnish with green onions.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Boil the sweet potatoes, russet potato and eggs, if using, for 10 minutes. Let the potatoes and eggs cool down to room temperature.
• Peel the skin off the potatoes and cut into medium dice. Peel and chop the eggs. Add kosher salt, pepper and garlic salt to taste. Add the bacon and eggs. Stir in the mayonnaise and mix thoroughly until well incorporated. Chill for 5 hours before serving.

Steps:

• For the Shrimp:
• If necessary, pat shrimp dry, then thread about 6 shrimp (through top and tail, leaving shrimp curled), onto each skewer, without leaving space between shrimp.
• Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium-high for gas); see Grilling Procedure.
• Meanwhile, brush shrimp with vegetable oil and sprinkle evenly with salt.
• Lightly oil grill rack. Grill shrimp, covered only if using a gas grill, turning over once, 2 minutes. Brush shrimp with some sauce from the saucepan, then turn. Brush shrimp with additional sauce then grill until just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve with reserved sauce.

Steps:

• Shell and devein shrimp. Place in a bowl together with a mixture of all the ingredients except the butter and sesame seeds. Marinate for 2-3 hours. Strain shrimp and brush with melted butter. Roll shrimp in sesame seeds and cook lightly in a buttered pan until they turn pink. Boil remaining marinade liquid for 10 minutes to reduce it, then strain and use as a dip for the shrimp.
