From Recipes Wiki, the recipe book anyone can contribute to!
[edit] Description
[edit] Ingredients
- 20 Jumbo Shrimp (prawns) 8-10 per pound
- 1 lb fresh Jalapeno Chiles
- 1 can mandarin orange sections
- 1/4 lb butter
- 1 lemon 1/2 tsp
- liquid smoke (only if grilling on a stove)
- 20 Short wooden skewers
- salt to taste
[edit] Directions
- Zest the lemon and add to butter in a small saucepan.
- Melt the butter and stir in the lemon juice (this may be done on the corner of the charcoal grill prior to grilling the Shrimp). Peel and devein the Shrimp -- leaving the tails on. Cut the Jalapenos into 3/4 inch slices, crossways. Put the tail of the Shrimp on a skewer, add a piece of chile and an orange segment, then skewer through the upper end of the Shrimp so that it forms a crescent around the chile and orange. Cover and refrigerate until ready to cook. Brush the Shrimp with lemon butter and cook on a medium charcoal or gas grill with hickory chips, turning once and basting with butter as needed. If grilling on a stove, add liquid smoke to the lemon butter.
