MANGO-GLAZED SHRIMP WITH RICED CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Heat the riced cauliflower according to the package directions; set aside.

Add the cumin seeds and cook until lightly toasted, 1 minute. Add the cauliflower and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, tossing occasionally, until evenly combined and hot throughout, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside in a large bowl.
• Wipe out the skillet, set over high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon coconut oil. Add the shrimp and cook, flipping once, until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes; remove to a plate. Reduce the heat to medium, add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the mango chutney and 1/2 cup water and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thick and syrupy, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, return the shrimp to the skillet and toss to coat.

COCONUT SHRIMP WITH MANGO SALSA

Steps:

• For the coconut shrimp: Peel, devein and butterfly the shrimp, leaving the tails on. Rinse and pat dry.
• Line a sheet pan with paper towels and arrange the shrimp on top. Sprinkle with the cocoa powder, curry powder and lemon pepper. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to allow the seasoning to be absorbed.
• Mix together the beer and the self-rising flour in a bowl to make a batter.
• Add the all-purpose flour to another bowl, and the coconut to a third. Arrange the bowls in a row so that the flour bowl is first, batter bowl second and coconut bowl third.
• Line a sheet pan with wax paper. Dip each shrimp into the flour, followed by the batter and finally the coconut, pressing down lightly so that the coconut adheres to the shrimp. Transfer the dressed shrimp to the lined sheet pan. Refrigerate at least 10 minutes and up to 4 hours.
• Once ready, line a plate with paper towels and set aside. Add 1 tablespoon oil to a 12-inch skillet. Heat the oil until it is shimmering and hot enough to pan-fry the shrimp.
• Add 6 to 7 of the battered shrimp and cook until golden brown on both sides. Transfer to the lined plate to absorb excess oil.
• Continue until all the shrimp are cooked, adding more oil as needed.
• For the tropical rice: Stir the Pineapple Mango Salsa, coconut and lemon zest into the rice and serve immediately with the shrimp.
• Combine the mango, pineapple, tomato, onion, lemon juice, oil, vinegar, green pepper, parsley, jalapeño, garlic, salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Taste for salt and pepper and add more if needed.
• Chill the salsa in a covered container. Will keep in the refrigerator for 4 days.

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Drain, rinse and dry a can of chickpeas and place on a large baking sheet with oil and jerk seasoning. Mix well and bake for 20 minutes or until crispy.

• Add a 12oz bag of frozen cauliflower rice into a skillet with oil over medium heat. Cook for a couple minutes for water to steam off. Then add coconut milk and salt to taste. If you have coconut flakes you can add some in. Bring to a low boil, then remove from heat. If using fresh cauliflower rice, add to a skillet with oil over medium heat and add coconut milk. Cook until heated through and turn off the heat.
• Peel, de-vein shrimp and mix with oil and jerk seasoning. Once chickpeas are done roasting you can remove them and place shrimp in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast at 375 for 8 minutes or until shrimp is no longer opaque. Or cook shrimp on a skillet over medium high heat, don't over crowd pan. Cook for about a minute or 2 on each side, until no longer opaque. Remove and place on top of cauliflower rice. Serve with chickpeas and mango salsa.

CARIBBEAN JERK SHRIMP

Steps:

• I use 1 pound jumbo shrimp, precooked frozen, peeled and deveined, tails can be either on or off.
• The most important thing to remember with this recipe is to completely thaw the precooked, frozen shrimp in a colander. When most of the water drains off, pat dry the shrimp as much as possible with paper towels. (Or start with fresh, peeled, deveined shrimp, precooked. A lot of grocers will steam them at no extra charge.).
• Turn your burner on medium high (almost high) and set your large non stick skillet or wok over the burner. When skillet begins to get really hot, but NOT smoking, quickly add the melted butter and shrimp.
• Sprinkle on the Caribbean Jerk Seasoning to taste. It's hot and spicy so be careful if you don't like the heat.
• Keep the shrimp moving in the pan, glazing the shrimp with the hot butter and spices.
• Cook just until hot and slightly browned. (only about 3 minutes or even less depending on the heat of your skillet).
• You can also make these in the broiler or on the grill after tossing the shrimp in melted butter, sprinkling on Caribbean Jerk Seasoning and spreading them on a broiler pan or open grill. Broil for only 2 to 3 minutes, watching closely.
