Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup sugar 1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest, plus 1/4 cup fresh lime juice (from 3 to 4 limes) 1 tablespoon Asian chili paste (such as sambal oelek) 1 tablespoon Asian fish sauce (such as nam pla) Coarse salt

  • Safflower oil, for brushing 36 large shrimp (about 3 pounds), peeled and deveined (tails left intact; optional) Coarse salt

Directions

Soak 12 wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent charring.

Meanwhile, make the sauce: Bring sugar and lime juice to a simmer in a small saucepan. Cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in lime zest, chili paste, and fish sauce. Season with salt.

Make the shrimp: Heat grill to high. Brush grates with oil. Thread 3 shrimp onto each skewer; season with salt. Divide sauce in half; reserve half for serving. Grill shrimp for 1 minute; brush with sauce. Flip, and grill for 1 minute more; brush with sauce again. Flip, and grill, brushing occasionally with sauce, until opaque, 1 to 3 minutes more. Serve with reserved sauce.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       12/19/2018   This was incredible. I also made it with chunked chicken breast on skewers for my youngest who won't eat shrimp. We all inhaled it. I drizzled the shrimp and chicken with a little grapeseed oil and sprinkled it with sugar, salt and pepper. Loved the glaze. Very, very nice. Thank you.
