Shrimp Satay with Thai Peanut Sauce

 

 

 

I am lucky to be living near the Fish Market where I can get fresh shell fish and other seafoods. Besides being fresh, it is relatively cheap compared to our local super market. I had a leftover Thai Peanut Sauce from the other day when I made the Thai Chicken Satay so I decided to make Shrimp Satay. It is another out of this world easy recipe. 

 

Ingredients :

 

2 lbs fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined

1 teaspoon of curry powder

1 cup of coconut milk

1 tablespoon of soy sauce

1 tablespoon of brown sugar

1 tablespoon of finely chopped lemon grass

2 cloves minced garlic

1 tablespoon of fresh ginger

1 tablespoon of fish sauce

salt and pepper to taste

1 cup of Thai Peanut Sauce - see recipe here

Bamboo skewers ( soaked for 30 minutes )

 

Cooking Directions:

 

• In a mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients except the peanut sauce.
• Add the shrimp and marinade for 1-3 hours.
• Pre-heat grill pan on medium high heat and spray or brush with oil.
• Thread the shrimp on the prepared skewer.
• Grill shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side or until turns pink.
• Serve Shrimp Satay with Thai Peanut Dipping Sauce and noodles of you choice. Enjoy!
