• 1. For Marinade: Process all ingredients in food processor until smooth, about 15 seconds. Reserve 2 tablespoons marinade; transfer remaining marinade to medium bowl.

Flip skewers and move to cool side of grill and cook, covered until other side of shrimp is no longer translucent, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove and toss with reserved marinade.

PICKLED JALAPENOS

Steps:

• Prepare the jars and lids: Wash all jars and lids thoroughly with soap and water and rinse well. Fill your canner with enough water to cover the jars by at least 1 inch and bring to a simmer. Using a pair of canning tongs, lower the jars in gently, tilting them to fill with the hot water. In a small saucepan, keep some water warm but not boiling; place the lids in the water. Have an additional kettle of water on to boil. Prepare the brine: Add vinegar, water, salt and garlic and peppercorns or honey (if using) to a medium saucepan and place over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat to keep at a simmer. Prepare the jalapenos: Wearing latex or plastic gloves, slice the jalapenos into 1/4-inch rings. Add the rings to the brine and bring back to the boil. Fill and close the jars: Using canning tongs, remove the jars from the canner, carefully pouring the water back into the canner. Set next to the jalapenos in the saucepan. Turn the heat under the canner to high. Use a ladle to pour the jalapenos into the jars through a canning funnel, leaving 1/2-inch headspace at the top. Run a clean chopstick around the inside of the jar to dislodge any trapped air. Wipe the rims of the jars with a damp paper towel. Place the lids on, and screw on the rings until just finger-tight. Seal the jars: Using canning tongs, gently transfer the jars to the canner, taking care to keep them vertical. When all the jars are in the canner, there should be at least 1 inch water covering them; if you need more, add water from the kettle until the jars are sufficiently covered. Bring the water to a full rolling boil, and process for 5 minutes. Remove and cool: Using canning tongs, gently remove the jars from the canner and transfer them to a kitchen towel or cooling rack, again keeping them vertical. Do not set hot jars directly on to cool counter surfaces. Leave to cool, undisturbed, for at least 12 hours. If any of the jars do not seal when cool, reprocess using the method above, or refrigerate and use immediately. Label and store: Add a label to the lid or side of your jar, noting the date it was canned. Remove the rings and store jars in a cool, dark place for up to one year. Refrigerate after opening.

• For the pickled jalapenos: Place the jalapenos in a clean jar. Bring remaining ingredients to a boil in a stainless steel pot. Pour immediately over the jalapenos and let cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate overnight before serving. Leftovers will keep in the refrigerator for several weeks. For the shrimp: Blend pickled jalapenos and the pickle juice, cilantro, garlic, lime zest and juice, salt, pepper and oil in a food processor. Pour over the shrimp, and marinate for about 1 hour. Preheat the grill (preferably charcoal) and set up for indirect grilling with coals on one side of the grill. Grill shrimp on the cooler side of the grill with the lid closed to capture smoke. Cook 10-15 minutes, or until just cooked through. Serve hot off the grill, or chill and serve with cocktail or tartar sauce.
