Method

Shrimp Preparation

  1. 1

    For Grilled or Blackened Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade. Add the shrimp and toss until well-coated. For grilled shrimp, preheat the grill to medium-high heat and thread shrimp onto skewers. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side until opaque and cooked through. For blackened shrimp, heat a skillet on high heat, add a bit of oil, and cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until blackened and cooked through.

  2. 2

    For Coconut Crusted Shrimp

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Dip each shrimp in the beaten egg, then coat with shredded coconut. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

Coconut Rice

  1. 3

    Prepare Coconut Rice

    In a saucepan, combine jasmine rice, coconut milk, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork before serving.

Seasonal Vegetables

  1. 4

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced zucchini, bell pepper, and carrots. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender but still crisp.
