Shrimp Shooters Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
• Skewer the prawns onto metal or wooden skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before threading). Place skewers on grill and grill for 5 to 10 minutes, or until prawns become opaque; brush with about half of the BBQ sauce while grilling. Remove from grill; when cool enough to handle, remove prawns from skewers. While waiting for shrimp to cool slightly, fill 8 shot glasses about halfway full with sauce and then place 1 prawn in each shot glass, tail sticking out. Garnish with a lime or lemon peel twist.

Steps:

• To Make Vinaigrette:.
• Whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and next 5 ingredients in a bowl.
• For Shrimp:.
• Place cooked shrimp and vinaigrette mixture in a large zip-top plastic freezer bag.
• Seal and chill at least 8 hours or up to 24 hours, turning bag occasionally.
• Arrange lettuce leaves in 8 (6- to 8-oz.) glasses.
• Spoon shrimp mixture evenly into glasses.
• Note: Vinaigrette may be prepared ahead and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 1 week. Let vinaigrette come to room temperature, and whisk before adding cooked shrimp.
