Spanish Inspired Grilled Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the grill to medium.
• Whisk together 1/4 cup of the oil, 2 tablespoons of the thyme, ancho powder and chopped garlic in a small bowl. Skewer the shrimp and brush with marinade.
• Place the remaining 1/2 cup of the oil in a small saucepan, add the sliced garlic and cook until the sliced garlic is lightly golden brown. Remove the garlic slices with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels. Reserve the oil.
• Increase the heat of the grill to high.
• Remove the shrimp from the marinade, season with salt and pepper and grill until golden brown on each side, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp from the skewers, transfer to a platter and drizzle with some of the reserved garlic oil and the garlic chips. Sprinkle with the remaining thyme and garnish with oregano leaves.

Steps:

• For the rice:
• In a large saucepan, sweat garlic, shallot and pepper in oil until softened. Add adobo sauce, tomato paste, rice, wine and broth, give a quick stir. Add saffron. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to low. Cook 15 to 20 minutes, until rice is cooked. Fold in peas.
• For the Shrimp Marinade:
• Blend in garlic, chipotle peppers, the lime juice, olive oil and cilantro in a food processor or blender. Pour over shrimp. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and marinate for 20 minutes.
• Preheat grill over a medium-high.
• Take shrimp out of marinade and cook on grill for about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until done. Fill phyllo shells with rice mixture, top with grilled shrimp. Garnish with chives.
• For the Dipping Sauce:
• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly and enjoy

Steps:

• Sprinkle the shrimp with salt, toss and let sit for 15 minutes.
• Heat the oil over medium heat in a heavy nonstick frying pan, and add the garlic, bay leaf and chile. Cook, stirring, until the garlic begins to color, about one minute. Turn the heat up to medium-high, and add the shrimp. Cook, stirring, until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked through, two to three minutes. Remove from the heat, sprinkle with the parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Slice garlic thinly. Season shrimp with kosher salt and paprika. Mix to coat.
• Heat garlic and oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook until garlic starts to turn golden, about 2 minutes. Add shrimp and increase heat to high. Toss and turn shrimp with tongs until starting to curl but still undercooked, about 2 minutes. Pour in sherry. Cook, stirring continuously, until sauce comes up to a boil and shrimp is cooked through, about 1 minute more. Remove from heat. Stir in parsley with a spoon.

Steps:

• Preheat the grill over high heat.
• In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic, shallots, cumin, paprika, about 1/2 tsp kosher salt, and 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper.
• Add the shrimp and stir to coat the shrimp thoroughly.
• Cover and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
• Using a small grate grill rack, grill the shrimp for about 1-2 minutes per side or until pink and just cooked through.
• (If you don't have a small grill rack you can also thread the shrimp on skewers to prevent them from falling through your rack.) Remove from the grill and garnish with cilantro and parsley.
• Squeeze lemon juice over the top of the shrimp and serve.
