Passion fruit gives the glaze a sweet-and-sour taste. Serve these kebabs over a bed of basmati or jasmine rice. When straining the glaze, press with the back of a spoon to extract as much passion fruit pulp as possible. Ingredients:
1/2 cup water |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup passion fruit pulp (about 4 passion fruit) |
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
1 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce |
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
32 large shrimp, peeled and deveined (about 1 1/2 pounds) |
cooking spray |
8 lime wedges |
Directions:
1. Bring water and sugar to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring until sugar dissolves. Add passion fruit pulp, stirring well, and cook 1 minute. Remove from heat; cool 15 minutes.
2. Strain passion fruit mixture through a sieve into a large bowl; discard seeds. Add lime juice, soy sauce, red pepper, and salt, stirring well. Set 1/2 cup passion fruit mixture aside. Add shrimp to remaining passion fruit mixture, and toss well to coat. Cover and refrigerate 15 minutes.
3. Prepare grill.
4. Thread 4 shrimp on each of 8 (10-inch) skewers. Place skewers on grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill 2 minutes on each side or until done, basting with reserved 1/2 cup passion fruit mixture. Serve with lime wedges.
