GRILLED SHRIMP WITH CITRUS DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Coat a stove-top grill pan or griddle with cooking spray and set over medium-high heat to preheat. Season both sides of shrimp with salt and black pepper. Place shrimp on hot pan and cook 2 to 3 minutes per side, until bright pink and cooked through. Sprinkle shrimp with cilantro.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, whisk together orange juice, lime juice, ginger, cornstarch, and garlic. Set pan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Simmer 2 minutes, until mixture thickens. Season, to taste, with salt and black pepper. Transfer sauce to a serving bowl. Serve 2/3 of the shrimp with the rice and dipping sauce on the side. Reserve remaining shrimp for wraps, if desired.

SPICY GRILLED SHRIMP WITH CUCUMBER CILANTRO RICE

Steps:

• For the shrimp: Combine all of the ingredients except the shrimp in a medium bowl; whisk together. Add the shrimp and toss to combine. Let marinate in the fridge for 1 to 2 hours, if time allows. Meanwhile, soak the skewers in water so they don't burn on the grill.
• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat or a grill pan for high heat. Thread about 4 shrimp onto each skewer, reserving the marinade for basting. Grill the shrimp until just firm, brushing with the marinade, 1 to 2 minutes per side (up to 3 minutes per side, if using a grill pan).
• For the rice: In a medium pot, melt the butter over medium heat and add the rice and garlic. Cook, stirring, until the rice smells a little nutty and is opaque, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and increase the heat to high. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover and cook the rice according to the package directions (usually 15 to 25 minutes). Fluff the rice with a fork then fold in the cucumber, cilantro, scallions, olive oil and vinegar. Taste for seasoning.
• Serve the rice with the shrimp skewers.

SPICY CITRUS GRILLED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Now shrimp will take only about 30-45 minutes worth of marinade.
• Scallops -- 20-30 tops.
• Fish can go a couple of hours, especially cod or halibut a thick cut fish steak.
• Marinade -- Mix the orange juice, lemon, zest of both the orange and lemon and chipoltes. Just mix all in a baggie and let the seafood marinade.
• Shrimp -- Now I like to skewer mine (bamboo skewers soaked in water first if using a charcoal grill) and then just grill. They take hardly any time. Just a couple of minutes per side is all. Just until they turn pink. I baste them as they grill once per side with the marinade. You can do this inside on a grill pan or outside on the grill.
• Serve -- With creamy cheesy polenta and grilled vegetables.
