Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 ½ teaspoons curry powder
- 2 large garlic cloves smashed
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 24 large shrimp peeled, tails left intact
- 1 sweet onion Vidalia or Walla Walla, cut into three ½-inch slices
- 1 red bell pepper seeded & cut into quarters
- 2 tablespoons minced cilantro divided
Instructions
- Heat the grill to medium-high heat.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, curry powder, salt and pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
- Thread the shrimp onto 4 skewers, running the shrimp through the body and tail of the shrimp.
- Lightly brush the onions and peppers with some of the marinade. Pour the rest of the marinade into a small saucepan, bring to a boil and simmer for about 4 minutes.
- Place the onions and peppers onto the grill and cook until lightly charred and tender, about 3 minutes per side. Remove from the grill and dice the onions and peppers. Mix them into the simmering marinade. Remove from the heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of cilantro.
- Place the shrimp skewers on the grill and cook until the shrimp is just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Take care not to overcook the shrimp or they will become rubbery.
- Remove the shrimp from the skewers, divide them between 4 plates, and spoon the onion sauce over the shrimp. Garnish with the remaining cilantro. Serve.
