With summer winding down, there are less opportunities to get out and grill. This Honey-Brined Grilled Shrimp from our friends at Cooking Light is a fast and easy way to celebrate the last days of summer.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds unpeeled large shrimp
1 cup boiling water
2 tablespoons kosher salt
5 tablespoons wildflower honey, divided
2 cups ice cubes
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
3 tablespoons finely chopped white onion
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh oregano
2 garlic cloves, minced
Cooking spray
1 small red Fresno chile, thinly sliced
Instructions:
1. Devein shrimp, and remove legs from shells, if desired. (Do not remove shells from shrimp.) Combine 1 cup boiling water, salt, and 2 1/2 tablespoons honey in a large bowl; stir until the salt dissolves. Add ice cubes; stir until mixture cools. Add shrimp, and refrigerate 20 minutes. Remove shrimp from bowl, discarding liquid. Pat shrimp dry with paper towels; toss shrimp with 1 1/2 teaspoons honey.
2. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
3. Place red wine vinegar and remaining 2 tablespoons honey in a large bowl; stir with a whisk to combine. Gradually add olive oil, stirring constantly with a whisk until well blended. Stir in parsley, onion, oregano, and garlic.
4. Arrange unpeeled shrimp on grill grates coated with cooking spray; grill shrimp, uncovered, 2 1/2 minutes on each side or until lightly charred and cooked through. Add shrimp to bowl with vinegar mixture; toss well to coat. Arrange shrimp mixture on a platter; top with sliced Fresno chile.
Tips & Trick:
- Ask your fish monger to devein your shrimp ahead of time.
- If Fresno chiles are too spicy for your little ones, replace them with sweet bell peppers.
