Tandoori Style Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• 1 In a blender, puree the first 8 ingredients until they form a paste.
• 2 In a large bowl, toss your protein with the marinade. Chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
• 3 When ready to cook, heat the grill and shake any excess marinade from the protein. Grill 9 minutes for chops, 6 to 8 minutes a side on a covered grill for chicken, or 4 minutes a side for shrimp. Serve.

Steps:

• Whisk together the lemon juice, garlic and ginger. Place prawns in a shallow baking dish and cover with the marinade. Let sit 15 minutes. Drain and pat the prawns dry.
• Mix together all ingredients. Place prawns back in the baking dish and cover with the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour. Thread 4 shrimp on a skewer and grill for 3 to 4 minutes on each side.

Steps:

• Make dressing:
• Force chutney through a sieve into a bowl and whisk in lime juice, oil, cayenne, and salt to taste. Dressing may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring dressing to room temperature before using.
• Make marinade:
• In a large non-stick skillet dry-roast paprika, cumin, and coriander seeds over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and several shades darker, about 2 minutes, being careful not to burn them, and transfer to a bowl. Cool spices and stir in remaining marinade ingredients and salt and pepper to taste.
• Pat shrimp dry and add to marinade, stirring to coat well. Marinate shrimp at room temperature 15 minutes. Alternatively, shrimp may be marinated, covered and chilled, up to 1 day.
• In large non-stick skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté shrimp in batches, turning once, until golden and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer shrimp as sautéed with tongs to paper towels to drain and cool slightly.
• In a large bowl gently toss together shrimp, watercress, coriander sprigs, bell peppers, mangoes, and dressing.

Steps:

• Put the yogurt in a bowl.
• Beat lightly with a fork until it is smooth and creamy.
• Add ginger, garlic, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, ground roasted cumin seeds, garam masala, and liquid yellow and red food colouring.
• Stir to mix and set aside for 15 minutes.
• Add the shrimp to the marinade and mix well.
• Marinate for 30 minutes.
• Remove the shrimp with a slotted spoon to a bowl, keeping the marinade.
• Melt the butter in a frying pan over medium heat.
• When the butter has melted completely, turn heat to medium high and immediately pour in the marinade.
• Stir and fry for a few minutes or until the butter separates and you have a thick bubbly sauce clinging to the bottom of the pan.
• Add the shrimp and fold in; cook for a few minutes, stirring gently.
• Do not overcook the shrimp.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except shrimp and sesame seeds and mix well. Stir in shrimp and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours.
• Remove shrimp from marinade. Heat a pan over medium-high hat; cook shrimp in a single layer for 4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.
• Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.

Steps:

• Thread shrimp on 8 10-inch skewers (if using wooden, they might not be as long so you may have to make more; soak wooden skewers in cold water for 30 minutes before threading shrimp onto them) and lay on a jelly roll sheet or any pan that will hold them in one layer.
• Marinate shrimp: In a small bowl, mix all ingredients well and spoon over skewered shrimp, cover completely.
• Slip into a plastic bag and refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
• Grill shrimp: Grill skewered shrimp over ashed coals for 3-4 minutes; turn and continue cooking 3 minutes more until done.
• Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
