Ingredients
- 2 pounds raw medium to large shrimp, peeled
- 2 cups lightly packed fresh cilantro sprigs
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
The Sauce
- 1/4 cup chunky-style peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons light soy sauce
- 1 to 2 tablespoons water
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions
Put the shrimp in a bowl.
In a blender puree the cilantro, lime juice, oil, and salt
and stir it into the shrimp. Cover and refrigerate for at
least 30 minutes, up to 8 hours.
In a small bowl whisk together the ingredients for the
sauce, adding enough water to reach the consistency of a
thin mayonnaise.
Preheat the broiler, with the oven rack set on the top
level.
Spread the shrimp in a single layer in a large jelly-roll
pan and broil the shrimp for about 5 minutes, turning them
once, until they are cooked through.
Serve the shrimp with the peanut sauce.
Note: Alternatively the shrimp can be threaded onto skewers
and grilled on a preheated oiled grill for the same amount
of time.
