Steps:
- Using a paring knife, cut through the back shell of each shrimp. Remove the dark vein by running your forefinger between the shell and the flesh of each shrimp, keeping the shell intact. Reserve shrimp in a re-sealable gallon plastic bag.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the lime juice and sugar until the sugar is completely dissolved, then add the fish sauce. Add the garlic, chile, Thai basil, and 1 tablespoon oil. Stir well and pour over the reserved shrimp in the plastic bag. Seal the bag, squeezing out the air. Massage the bag to make sure that all of the shrimp are covered and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Heat a grill pan over high heat. Oil the grill pan with remaining oil. Grill the shrimp, turning once to prevent burning, until evenly pink and golden on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve shrimp on large plate over Sour Mango Salad.
- Mix the mangos, carrots, and chiles in a large bowl.
- For the dressing: in a medium bowl, whisk together the lime, fish sauce, and sugar until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add the dressing to the bowl and toss together. Let stand 20 minutes. Drain and serve at room temperature or lightly chilled.
SPICY THAI GRILLED SHRIMP
Steps:
- 1. Mix the hot sauce, Worcestershire, oil, cilantro, sugar and garlic in a glass bowl large enough to hold the shrimp. 2. Add the shrimp to the bowl and place in the refrigerator. 3. Allow the shrimp to marinate for 1 - 2 hours. The longer the time, the spicier the shrimp, but don't go longer than 2 hours. 4. Preheat the grill to medium-high. 5. While the grill heats up, skewer the marinated shrimp. 6. Grill the marinated shrimp skewers for about 3 minutes per side. Be careful not to over-cook the shrimp, they are done once they turn opaque.
