Coconut Adobo Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• In medium bowl, combine egg, 1/2 cup flour, beer and baking powder. Place 1/4 cup flour and coconut in two separate bowls.
• Hold shrimp by tail, and dredge in flour, shaking off excess flour. Dip in egg/beer batter; allow excess to drip off. Roll shrimp in coconut, and place on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, heat oil to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) in a deep-fryer.
• Fry shrimp in batches: cook, turning once, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Using tongs, remove shrimp to paper towels to drain. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat coconut milk, ginger and garlic to boiling over high heat.
• Add tomato, lime juice and shrimp.
• Reduce heat to medium and cook for 2-3 minutes or until shrimp are done.
• Stir in cilantro and green onions and top with almonds.
• Serve with rice or pasta.

Steps:

• Wash shrimp and cut off whiskers. Drain.
• Place in pan or wok, add all ingredients except sugar and cooking oil.
• Cook shrimp until not quite cooked on MED HEAT, maybe 2-4 minutes depending on your shrimp size.
• Drain shrimp (along with garlic). Set sauce aside, and add the sugar.
• Heat cooking oil and fry shrimp and garlic together on MED LOW HEAT.
• When garlic is lightly browned, return the sauce to the pan and finish cooking shrimp.
• [Be sure to not overcook the shrimp-- you can tell if they turn into little O's" instead of C's].
• [Note: If you want a spicy "adobo", add 1 tablespoon of hot sauce or 1-2 minced hot peppers of your preference.].
• Put on serving platter and garnish with chopped scallions (optional).
• Serve with steamed Jasmine rice.

Steps:

• In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium-high until shimmering. Add the garlic, whole peppercorns, freshly ground pepper and red-pepper flakes, drop the temperature to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic is toasted and softened and mixture is fragrant, about 5 minutes.
• Add the chicken, skin-side down, and cook over medium-high, undisturbed, until fat starts to render, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the coconut milk, coconut vinegar, soy sauce, bay leaves and 1 cup water, and let the mixture come to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the chicken feels loosened and just about falling off the bone, stirring halfway through, about 1 hour.
• Increase the temperature to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thickened to a velvety gravy, about 15 minutes. Serve chicken and sauce over rice.
