Tandoori Spiced Grilled Shrimp With Mint Cilantro Chutney Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare grill for cooking.
• Butterfly shrimp by making a deep lengthwise incision from top to bottom down center of back, without cutting all the way through, and devein. 3Combine turmeric, paprika, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add shrimp and toss to coat well.
• Grill shrimp, opened flat, on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals, turning once, until cooked through, about 2 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, grill shrimp in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderate heat.) 3Serve immediately with chutney.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high. Combine all spices and the oil in a medium bowl to make a paste. Rub a thin layer of the spice paste onto 1 side of each chicken breast. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until slightly charred and just cooked through. Remove from the grill, let rest 5 minutes, and cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch thick slices. Serve openface on pitas: the chicken slices, a few dollops of Tomato Jam, and a drizzle of Herbed Yogurt.
• Heat grill to high. Brush tomatoes and serrano with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill tomatoes and serrano on all sides until charred. Remove from the grill and coarsely chop.
• Heat oil in a medium saucepan on the grates of the grill or on the side burners. Add the onion and cook until soft. Add the tomatoes, serrano, balsamic vinegar, and saffron and cook until thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and let cool to room temperature before serving.
• Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Refrigerate if not using immediately.

Steps:

• For the shrimp: Whisk together the chile powder, garam marsala, canola oil, lemon juice in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat in the mixture. Let marinate for 15 minutes.
• Prepare a charcoal grill for direct grilling, high heat.
• For the chutney: Combine the cilantro, mint, scallions, chile, 1 tablespoon each honey and canola oil, lime zest, and some salt and pepper in a food processor. Process to make a smooth paste. Taste; add honey, if desired, or more oil to make a sauce that will cling to the shrimp.
• Thread 2 skewers through 3 shrimp so that the shrimp lay flat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill until golden brown and slightly charred on both sides and just cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes per side.
• Remove the shrimp to a platter and serve with the cilantro-mint chutney.

Steps:

• To prepare shrimp, combine the first 3 ingredients in a small skillet over medium heat; cook 2 min or until fragrant, stirring constantly. Cool. Place the spice mixture in a spice or coffee grinder; process until finely ground. Combine spice mixture, yogurt, and next 6 ingredients (through ground red pepper) in a large zip-top plastic bag. Add shrimp to bag; seal. Toss to coat. Marinate in refrigerator 1 hour, turning bag occasionally. Prepare grill. Combine onion wedges, bell pepper, and tomatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with oil; toss to coat. Remove shrimp from bag; discard marinade. Thread 4 shrimp, 2 tomatoes, 2 onion wedges, and 2 bell pepper pieces alternately onto each of 8(10-in)skewers (hint - if you have enough double your skewers and "ladder" on the pieces so they don't turn around the skewer when cooking). Lightly coat skewers with cooking spray. Place skewers on grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill 4 minutes on each side or until done. To prepare chutney, combine mint and remaining ingredients in a food processor; process until smooth. Serve with skewers.

Steps:

• Cook the basmati rice in simmering water for 12 minutes or until tender. Drain well.
• Meanwhile, preheat the broiler to medium-high. In a bowl, mix together 4 tablespoons plain yogurt with 2 tablespoons tandoori curry paste. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Tip onto a foil-lined baking tray, along with the marinade, and broil for 4-5 minutes or until just cooked through.
• For the raita, peel long, thin strips from the cucumber with a vegetable peeler, then pat dry on kitchen paper.
• Put into a bowl, add the yogurt, mint leaves and some seasoning and mix together.
• Divide the rice between plates and spoon the shrimp and raita alongside.
• Garnish with extra fresh mint sprigs. Serve with lime wedges, to squeeze over, if you like.

Steps:

• In a food processor fitted with a metal blade, or a blender, combine the garlic, turmeric, salt, red pepper flakes, and yogurt.
• Blend well and place in a glass bowl until ready to use.
• One hour before grilling, place the shrimp into the yogurt marinade.
• Soak wooden skewers in warm water to prevent burning.
• Place the shrimp on the skewers.
• Grill, 4 to 6 inches from source of heat, on a rack that you have lightly coated with cooking spray for one minute.
• Carefully turn and grill until shrimp are cooked through, another 2 to 3 minutes.
• Place shrimp on platter and serve immediately.
