Honey Glazed Grilled Shrimp Skewers

Honey Glazed Grilled Shrimp Skewers

Honey Glazed Grilled Shrimp Skewers

2 lb Panamei Raw, Peeled, Deveined, Tail-on Shrimp (Suggested size: 16/20 to 21-25)

½ cup Soy Sauce

1 cup of Honey

6 Garlic cloves, minced

1 tsp Paprika

1 tsp Onion powder

¼ cup Olive oil (for seasoning)

¼ cup Canola or vegetable oil (for the grill)

2-3 Lemons, cut into halves

TO THAW SHRIMP:
Remove from the packaging and place in a covered container in the refrigerator overnight (6-8 hours). For quick thawing, place shrimp in a colander under running cool water for 15-20 minutes until thoroughly defrosted. Drain the excess water and cook immediately, do not refreeze seafood products after being thawed.

PREPARE THE MARINADE:
Combine the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, paprika, onion powder, and olive oil in a large bowl. Add the shrimp and mix it well. Cover the bowl and let the shrimp marinate with the seasoning in the refrigerator for at least one hour before grilling.

GET READY TO GRILL!
Clean the grill grates and brush them with oil (canola or vegetable)—Preheat to 415˚F. If using wooden skewers, soak them in warm water for 15-30 minutes before use.  Build the skewers with three or four shrimp depending on the size of the sticks; as an option, you may add vegetables like onion, peppers, or cherry tomatoes in between.

Cook the shrimp skewers for about 2 minutes on each side. With the remaining marinade, brush the lemon halves and grill them open face down for a couple of minutes; squeeze lemon juice over the shrimp right before serving. ENJOY!

Salmon rolls

Salmon rolls

Salmon rolls

Panamei Product: Atlantic Salmon Portions
Recipe & Pictures by: Andrea Garzón / @ akitchen.obsession

Ingredients:

  • 1 Panamei Salmon portion
  • 2 Nori sheets
  • 1/2 medium avocado
  • 3 tablespoons of cream cheese
  • 1 cup of Panko
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 beaten egg
  • 1/2 cup of oil for frying
  • Chives and sesame seeds to decorate
  • Eel sauce to dip
  • Remove the skin from the salmon and cut it into rectangles (about a finger thick). The easiest way to do this is to cut diagonally. Then cut the rectangles into 3 or 4 thick strips depending on the size of the salmon and the rectangles. Season with salt.
  • Cut the Nori leaves into 4 equal pieces, you will have 8 in total. Fill each with a strip of salmon, a strip of cream cheese and a piece of avocado. Slightly moisten your fingers with water and carefully run them over the edge of each Nori sheet.
  • Wrap the sheet starting with two corners inward and then the other two remaining corners inward again. Wet the fingers again so that the sheet adheres correctly, and you make it into a pouch or envelope shape.
  • Beat the egg on a bowl, set aside. Place panko on one plate and flour on another plate. When the rolls are ready, pass them through the flour, then through the egg and finally through the panko. Tighten them very gently to make them a little more compact.
  • heat the oil in a medium saucepan and wait until it is very hot. Begin frying the rolls in two batches, 4 at a time until golden brown, remove from the oil and let them cool (the filling will be very hot).
  • Carefully cut them in half and serve with eel sauce.
