Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Shrimp (large, peeled and deveined)
- 120 ml Coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 2 teaspoons Brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 12 pieces Wooden skewers (soaked in water for 30 minutes)
- 120 grams Peanut butter (creamy)
- 60 ml Warm water
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce (for peanut sauce)
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Lime juice (for peanut sauce)
Instructions
1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together coconut milk, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, ground turmeric, ground coriander, brown sugar, chili powder, vegetable oil, and salt to create the marinade.
2. Add the shrimp to the marinade, ensuring all shrimp are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour to allow flavors to develop.
3. While the shrimp is marinating, prepare the peanut dipping sauce by combining peanut butter, warm water, soy sauce, honey, and lime juice in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth and set aside.
4. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates or pan to prevent sticking.
5. Thread the marinated shrimp onto the soaked wooden skewers, dividing evenly across the skewers.
6. Grill the shrimp skewers for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until shrimp are pink, opaque, and slightly charred. Avoid overcooking as this will make the shrimp rubbery.
7. Arrange the shrimp skewers on a platter and serve hot with the prepared peanut dipping sauce on the side.
