KEY WEST SHRIMP ESCABECHE

Steps:

• For the marinade: Combine coconut milk, lime juice, salt, sugar and vinegar in a bowl and mix well.
• For the escabeche: Preheat a grill to medium heat.
• Grill the tomatillos until well caramelized and soft, then chop. Grill the corn in the husks, then shuck and slice kernels from the cobs. (Keep the grill on.)
• Place shrimp in a bowl and sprinkle with olive oil and salt and pepper. Place shrimp on the grill and cook until caramelized and pink but still not cooked all the way through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Pull from grill and let cool.

GRILLED SHRIMP ESCABECHE

Steps:

• Heat your grill to high. Toss the shrimp in a bowl with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Grill the shrimp for 1 to 2 minutes per side or until just cooked through. Transfer shrimp to a clean medium bowl.
• Heat 1/3 cup olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. When oil is hot, add the onion, garlic, and serrano chiles and cook until soft. Add the cumin and mustard seeds and cook for 1 minute. Add the vinegar, bay leaves, and cilantro and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and immediately pour over the shrimp and stir to coat. Let cool to room temperature, cover, and then refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight, stirring a few times during that time. Transfer the escabeche, with a slotted spoon, to a platter and garnish with sliced radishes and torn cilantro.

A CLASSIC ESCABECHE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Combine the cup salt with 4 cups of water, and stir to combine. Brine the fish in this mixture for 30 to 45 minutes.
• Heat the olive oil in a large pan, and add the mashed garlic cloves, chile, and 2 bay leaves. Cook these aromatics in the oil over medium heat until the garlic browns, about 4 to 6 minutes. Do not let the garlic burn. Remove the aromatics and discard.
• Turn the heat up to medium-high, and cook the fish. You want a good sear , so if the fish is not cooking hot enough, turn the heat all the way up to high. Sear each side of the fish for 1 to 3 minutes, depending on the thickness. You don't need to cook the fish all the way through.
• Remove the fish to cool. Add the slivered onion, lower the heat to medium and cook until translucent. Remove to cool.
• Add all the remaining ingredients to the pan, turn the heat up to high, and bring to a rolling boil. Reduce by half, turn off the heat, and let cool.
• When everything is at room temperature, pour the sauce into a container, and add the fish and onions. Store in the refrigerator overnight to let the flavors marry.
• Serve cool or at room temperature.
