GRILLED SHRIMP WITH SALSA VERDE
The sauce in this recipe is ubiquitous along Italy's western coast, where I ate it spooned over a thinly sliced fish steak titled Pesce Spada alla Griglia. It is best enjoyed when the freshest seafood and produce are available. The sauce can be made in advance and the shrimp broiled or grilled just before the meal. From the book "Lucinda's Rustic Italian Kitchen," by Lucinda Scala Quinn (Wiley).

Steps:
- Mince together the garlic, capers, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and place in a small bowl. Stir in the mint, parsley, olive oil, lemon juice, and red-wine vinegar.
- Preheat the broiler or prepare a grill. Butterfly the shrimp by slicing down the center of each, lengthwise, almost but not completely through. Open both sides to lay flat. Season with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper. Broil or grill for 2 minutes per side. Place 4 shrimp on each plate and spoon some of the sauce over them. Serve with lemon.

Steps:
- Soak 20 wooden skewers in enough water to cover for 30 minutes (prevents skewers from burning on the grill).
- Make the salsa verde: puree all the ingredients, except the shrimp, in a blender or food processor until smooth and set aside.
- This can be make ahead and covered and kept in the refrigerator overnight-remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling.
- Thread 3 shrimp through the head on one skewer and with a second skewer thread through the tail, repeat for all the shrimp.
- This method of 2 skewers keeps the shrimp from spinning when turning on the grill.
- Brush both sides of skewers with the salsa verde, can be assembled up to 4 hours ahead if kept refrigerated.
- Prepare grill and cook 2-4 minutes per side until shrimp turn pink and are lightly charred.
- Turn to grill 2-4 minutes more.

Steps:
- Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Lightly brush the shrimp, corn, jalapeno, scallions and onion wedges with canola oil, sprinkle with salt and place on the grill. Cook the scallions and shrimp until charred and the shrimp are cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Cook the jalapeno and red onion until charred and softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Cook the corn, rotating every 2 minutes, until charred and the kernels have turned bright yellow, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove the vegetables and shrimp to a baking sheet and let cool.
- Cut the grilled shrimp into 1/4-inch pieces and place in a medium bowl. Seed and finely chop the jalapeno; add to the bowl. Finely shop the scallions and red onion and cut the kernels from the corn; add all three to the bowl. Stir in the cucumber, lime zest and juice, paprika, coriander and cumin. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Before serving, fold in the cilantro and avocado. Serve with tortilla chips.
