Best Shrimp On Sugarcane With Rum Glaze Recipes

RUM-GLAZED SHRIMP

Steps:

• 1. Peel shrimp, leaving tails intact. Place shrimp in a bowl with 4 tbsp. rum along with lemon or lime juice, oil, garlic, salt, pepper; toss to coat thoroughly. Cover and marinate in the fridge for up to 1 hour.
• 2. Combine brown sugar, vinegar, and remaining 2 tbsp. rum. Thread shrimp onto skewers and lightly brush with brown sugar glaze.
• 3. Grill over medium hot fire, brushing with additional glaze until shrimp are opaque, about 3 minutes on each side or until done.

SUGAR CANE SKEWERED SHRIMP WITH RUM-SCOTCH BONNET DIPPING SAUCE

PLANTATION SHRIMP ON SUGAR CANE SKEWERS

Steps:

• Place shrimp in a mixing bowl and stir in oil, lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper. Marinate 15 minutes while you prepare glaze and skewers.
• Place ingredients for glaze in a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer until thick and syrupy, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Cut swizzle sticks in half widthwise, and cut one end off each piece sharply on diagonal. Resulting skewers should be about 5 inches long and 1/4 inch wide.
• Set up grill for direct grilling, and preheat to high. Using a metal skewer, make two starter holes in each shrimp, one toward head end, one toward tail. Insert a sugar cane skewer through holes. Repeat with remaining shrimp.
• Brush and oil grill grate. Grill shrimp kebabs until cooked, about 2 minutes a side, generously basting with glaze. Serve any remaining glaze as a sauce on the side.

SHRIMP ON SUGARCANE WITH RUM GLAZE

Steps:

• Trim off the ends of the sugarcane and cut them into skewers. Rinse the shrimp under cold running water and then drain and blot dry with paper towels. Skewer the shrimp on the sugarcane. Place the brown sugar, butter, rum, mustard, vinegar, cinnamon, cloves, pepper, and salt in a non-reactive saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and continue to cook until the mixture is thick and syrupy, about 3 to 5 minutes. Taste for seasoning, adding salt and pepper as necessary. Set aside a small amount of the glaze to be used for dipping the cooked shrimp. The recipe can be prepared up to 1 hour ahead to this stage; keep the shrimp in the refrigerator, covered. The glaze can be kept at room temperature. Preheat the grill to high. When ready to cook, brush and oil the grill grate. Place the shrimp kebabs on the hot grate and grill until cooked, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Generously baste each with glaze once before turning and once before removing from the grill. The shrimp will be firm and white when cooked through. Serve the reserved glaze as a sauce on the side.
