• Serve with a drizzle of the reserved marinade and cilantro, as garnish.

CHILE GLAZED SHRIMP

Steps:

• *Cook s Note: If using dehydrated chiles soak them in warm tap water for 1 hour or till soften (this is usually only take 20 minutes, but I found with the smaller chiles, like the red Thai, that is take about an hour or so to fully rehydrate).
• Place both the red Thai chiles and the bell peppers in a blender or food processor and pulse until smooth. Transfer chiles to a large mixing bowl and add the sugar, orange zest, rice wine vinegar, honey, salt, ginger and coriander and mix together thoroughly.
• Skewer shrimp and place in a large casserole dish. Pour the marinade over the shrimp, cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge to marinate for 15 minutes.
• Preheat your grill while your shrimp is marinating.
• Remove shrimp from fridge and grill over medium high heat for about 1-2 minutes per side. Glaze with the marinade the last minute of grilling. Remove to a platter and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
• Peel, core, and dice pineapple.
• In a medium bowl, combine red onion, pineapple, cilantro, lime juice, ground ginger, and salt and pepper. Mix together. Cover and chill.

• in large skillet over medium heat saute garlic and onions in the butter until soft. Once onions are soft add in the juice of the 2 tangerines and let simmer for 2 minutes.
• Add the shrimp into the sauted mixture and cook until done (about 5 or 6 minutes).

• Pat shrimp dry with paper towels; season with ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, and sugar.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over high heat until smoking.
• Add half the shrimp to pan in a single layer; cook until spotty brown and just pink around the edges, about 1 minute.
• Off heat, use tongs to quickly flip over each shrimp and let stand until all but very center is opaque, about 30 seconds.
• Transfer shrimp to plate and cover with foil.
• Add remaining tablespoon oil to skillet and return to high heat until just smoking; sear remaining shrimp.
• After second batch has stood off heat, return first batch to skillet and toss to combine.
• Add glaze, cover, and let stand to warm through glaze, about 1 minute.
• Toss shrimp again to coat and serve.

CRISPY CILANTRO-CHILE SHRIMP

Steps:

• Combine the cilantro, garlic, chile, 2 tablespoons oil, ginger, lime juice, turmeric, garam masala, cumin, coriander, cayenne and 2 teaspoons salt in a blender. Purée, using a wooden spoon or the blender wand to help combine ingredients if necessary. Scrape the puréed mixture into a bowl. Add the shrimp and use your hands or a spatula to evenly combine. Marinate for up to 1 hour in the refrigerator, if possible, or proceed immediately to Step 2.
• Dredge the shrimp: Pour the farina onto a lipped plate or into a large shallow bowl and season with two generous pinches of salt; toss to combine. Let the marinade cling to the shrimp, then dredge the shrimp in the farina, patting the farina onto each shrimp to adhere, and carefully shaking off any excess crumbs. Place the dredged shrimp on a parchment- or foil-lined sheet pan.
• Heat ¼ cup of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Working in 2 or 3 batches, depending on the size of your pan and the size of your shrimp, lay the shrimp in the pan in one layer and fry without disturbing until the shrimp are deeply golden brown on one side, about 3 to 4 minutes. Gently flip with tongs or a spatula and fry until golden brown on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove the shrimp to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle with salt. (If any large shards of coating come off the shrimp, remove them from the oil, and serve with the shrimp.) Wipe the skillet clean of crumbs with a paper towel and add more oil to the pan as necessary to maintain the amount, and repeat the pan-frying process with the remaining shrimp. Serve with lime wedges on the side.

SEARED SHRIMP WITH LEMON AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Finely grate zest of 3 lemons. Juice all 4 lemons; strain juice, and set aside. Place shrimp in a large bowl; add lemon zest, garlic, and 1/4 cup olive oil; toss well to coat evenly. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, and heat until oil is hot but not smoking. Working in batches, arrange a single layer of shrimp in pan, being careful not to overcrowd pan. Cook until underside is golden brown, 45 to 60 seconds. Turn over, and continue cooking until other side is golden brown and shrimp is cooked through, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large serving platter. Deglaze pan with 1 1/2 tablespoons reserved lemon juice, stirring up any browned bits with a wooden spoon, and pour pan sauce over shrimp. Cover loosely with foil while repeating process with remaining batches, adding 1 tablespoon oil each time.

SEARED SHRIMP WITH CHARD, CHILES AND GINGER

Steps:

• Season shrimp generously with salt. Wash and trim chard, thinly slicing the stems.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil, then add shrimp and sear until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer shrimp to a plate. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet, let heat for a few seconds, then add garlic, chile peppers, shallot and ginger and sauté until slightly browned, about 3 minutes. Stir in sugar, pepper and salt and cook for 1 minute longer. Stir in chard stems and sauté until they start to soften, about 2 minutes.
• Add the greens to the skillet along with 2 tablespoons water and immediately cover the pan. Keep it covered for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the greens to wilt. Once the greens have cooked down, remove the lid and continue cooking for a few more minutes to allow the water to evaporate. Add the shrimp and any liquid accumulated on the plate and cook just until the shrimp are heated through, about 1 minute longer. Drizzle with the sherry vinegar and gently toss to coat. Serve hot, garnished with the cilantro.

SHRIMP SOUP WITH PASILLA CHILES

Steps:

• Cut 4 chile halves into fine strips. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in small skillet over high heat. Add chile strips and fry until crisp, about 10 seconds. Drain; reserve for garnish. Toast remaining chile halves in medium skillet over medium-high heat 1 minute. Transfer to bowl of cold water; soak 30 minutes. Drain; rinse with cold water.
• Bring 1 1/2 cups water to boil in small saucepan. Add tomatillos and boil until soft, about 15 minutes. Drain. Puree tomatillos, soaked chiles, and garlic in blender. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add chile puree and stir over medium heat until puree thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Bring 5 cups water to boil in large pot. Add shrimp shells and boil 10 minutes. Strain shrimp broth into chile puree. Toast tortilla directly atop burner until crisp and blackened in spots, about 4 minutes. Add tortilla to chile puree, then epazote leaves. Simmer over medium heat until tortilla is soft, about 15 minutes. Working in batches, puree soup in blender until smooth. Return soup to saucepan; season with salt. Bring to boil. Add shrimp and simmer until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Ladle soup into bowls; garnish with fried chile strips and serve with lime wedges.

SEARED SHRIMP WITH TANGERINE, CILANTRO, AND PASILLA CHILE

• Make the sauce: in a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and saute the shallot, garlic, and ginger until just softened; do not brown.
• Mix the cornstarch with 1 cup of the tangerinejuice until dissolved. Add to the pan and cook, stirring, until thickened. Add the remaining 1 cup of juice. (Don't let the juice boil or it will lose it's delicate flavor).
• Turn off the heat an dset the sauce aside for 15 minutes, then strain through a fine sieve and keep warm over very low heat while you cook the shrimp.
• In a large frying pan or well-seasoned wok, heat the oil over high heat until it shimmers.
• Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel and add to the pan all at once. After about 5 minutes, when the shrimp are half-cooked (curled and pink but slightly soft), add the tomatoes, crushed chile, and salt. Cook and stir just until the shrimp are firm; do not overcook.
• Remove the pan from the heat an dstir in 1/4 cup of the strained sauce and half of the cilantro. Squeeze the lemon over the shrimp.
