i could eat 8 of these, honestly. because they are so light and healthy, i would feel justified in doing so! there is really no recipe for these, you can marinate them in asian flavors, latin flavors, fresh herbs, you name it. for these i used about a tablespoon of adobo sauce from a can of chipotle peppers, garlic, red pepper flakes, black pepper and olive oil. that's it. i let the shrimp marinate for about 3 hours, sprinkled them with a bit of salt and on to my grill pan. while the shrimp is cooking (about 1-2 minutes per side) slice your veggies and wash your lettuce. i used red and yellow bell peppers, carrots, cucumbers and cilantro. ooh, basil would have be nice. finish the shrimp off with a big squeeze of fresh lime juice. i like to slice all the veggies and put them on a nice white platter, lined up. lettuce on another platter and the shrimp in a bowl with tongs. looks good that way. haven't you noticed that pretty plated food just tastes better?
