BROILED SHRIMP TACOS
Shrimp can be purchased already peeled and deveined, if you prefer not to do it yourself. Frozen shrimp are also a good option; thaw them in the bag in a bowl of water. Broilers vary in heat intensity; adjust the rack as necessary to cook the shrimp through.

Steps:
- Preheat broiler with rack 6 inches from heating element. Arrange tortillas in overlapping rows on a baking sheet. Broil until blistered in spots, about 1 minute. Flip and broil about 30 seconds more. Remove from broiler; immediately stack tortillas and wrap in a clean kitchen towel to soften and keep warm until ready to serve.
- Toss shrimp with 1 cup onion, oil, chipotles, and salt. Transfer to a baking dish and broil, stirring a few times, until shrimp are pink and opaque, 6 to 8 minutes. Divide shrimp and remaining onion evenly among tortillas. Serve with assorted garnishes.

Steps:
- Combine the jalapeno, lime zest, lime juice, garlic, cilantro, coconut, olive oil, and soy sauce in a food processor; blend until smooth. Place the shrimp in a large bowl. Pour the sauce over the shrimp and toss to coat. Cover and allow to marinate at least 2 hours.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Thread the shrimp onto skewers, piercing each shrimp near the head and tail.
- Cook the skewers on the preheated grill, turning frequently until nicely browned on all sides and the meat is no longer pink in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Steps:
- In a bowl, whisk together jelly, ginger, vinegar, and 3 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Place 3 tablespoons dressing in another bowl; add shrimp and toss.
- Heat 1/2 inch oil in a small, deep pot over medium until a single tortilla strip sizzles immediately when added. Fry half of tortilla strips, stirring occasionally, until crisp and light golden, about 30 seconds. Transfer to paper towels; season with salt. Repeat with remaining strips.
- Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add shrimp in a single layer and cook, flipping once, until pink and lightly charred, about 3 minutes total.

Steps:
- Heat oil in large skillet or Wok on med-hi heat.
- Add onions and stir, cook for 3 minutes.
- Add garlic and ginger, cook 2 minutes.
- Add next 5 spices, cook 1 minute.
- Add tomatoes, cook 1 minute.
- Add coconut milk, water, and salt, and bring to a simmer until thickened 5-10 minutes.
- Add shrimp, simmer, stirring for 3-5 minutes.
- Stir in cilantro, lemon juice and zest.
- Serve over rice noodles with lime wedges.
- Rice Noodle Cooking Directions:.
- Place all your rice noodles in a deep mixing bowl, trying to snap as few of them as possible as you remove them from the package (always a challenge for us). Bring a good amount of water to boil. Pour the boiling water over the rice noodles until they are completely submerged.
- Every minute or two, give the noodles a stir to loosen them up. When they are completely limp, give them a taste to see if they're cooked through. The thread-like vermicelli noodles used in spring rolls will cook through in just a few minutes. The flat rice noodles might take upwards of ten minutes depending on thickness. Pay attention and test the noodles frequently because they'll become mushy if they overcook.
- Once the noodles are tender, drain them and run them under cool water to stop the cooking. Toss them with a bit of sesame oil to keep the noodles from sticking to each other if you're not going to use them right away.
- Since these noodles will be used in the above dish, you definitely want to under-cook them a bit. They will absorb more moisture and cook the rest of the way through once in the stir fry. If your noodles are perfectly cooked to start, they will turn to mush in the stir fry.
- Note: This whole recipe can be cut in half including the rice noodles.
EASY THAI COCONUT SHRIMP AND RICE
Inspired by Dave Lieberman's Spicy Coconut Shrimp but simplified/modified to work for my family. I'll start the rice and then pull the marinating shrimp out of the fridge and the timing seems to work for me. I serve this with Grilled Pineapple Salad Recipe #243135, but it is good with any tropical fruit salad.

Steps:
- A note on ingredients: a small can of diced green chiles works fine. The original recipe called for 2 seeded chopped jalapeños, so I think any hot pepper would work. I use the pre-cleaned frozen shrimp and they are fine for this recipe, you don't need anything fancy. If I am making pineapple salad, I use fresh pineapple in this recipe. Otherwise, I use canned crushed pineapple.
- Start by placing the shrimp in a large self-close bag or medium glass bowl. Add the peppers, garlic, ginger, honey, soy sauce, and coconut milk. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 4 hours.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, combine olive oil, salt, onions, and bell peppers. Cook until vegetables become slightly soft, but not browned.
- Turn heat up to high and place the shrimp (not the marinade, just the shrimp) in the skillet. Sauté, turning once, until shrimp are just slightly browned on the outside and turning pink. You want them slightly undercooked.
- Remove shrimp, onions, and peppers from the skillet. Pour the marinade into the skillet and bring it to a boil. Boil it for 5 minutes. This is long enough to cook the "shrimp juice" that got into the marinade and also to thicken the sauce.
- Turn the heat off. Add the shrimp mixture back to the skillet. Add the basil and green onions. Toss to combine. Serve immediately over rice.
- Rice:.
- In a small covered saucepan, combine the rice, coconut milk, and stock (or water). Use up the rest of the can of coconut milk, and add enough additional liquid to total 1.5 cups.
- Bring to a boil and then reduce heat. Cook covered. Simmer for 12-15 minutes. Add pineapple. Fluff with a fork.
