Grilled Shrimp with Cilantro

Grilled Shrimp with Cilantro by MastahChef117
Not my picture only my recipe.

This recipe is great if you are trying to keep that sexy figure.  I recommend eating it with a salad vinaigrette based) or some steamed veggies.  

NOTE: before beginning notice that this recipe is in two parts and you must read the whole thing before you begin or else it will not be done correctly.

2 Pounds Shrimp peeled or unpeeled
1 Cup FRESH cilantro chopped
2 Cloves of garlic peeled and lightly smashed
1 Tablespoon Peeled and roughly chopped ginger root
1 Habanero or jalapeño, stemmed, seeded, and roughly chopped *optional
1/4 Cup Extra-virgin olive oil
Fresh lime or lemon juice to taste I prefer lime

Grilling the Shrimp
First make the Cilantro Salsa.  Then heat up the grill to about medium high.  Reposition your grill rack to be about 4 inches above the flame *wear gloves so you don't burn yourself.  Grill the shrimp turning ONLY once.  You can tell when they are done by the shells are too hot to touch or when the flesh turns pink, and slightly browns.

Cilantro Salsa
Combine the cilantro in a blender with the garlic, ginger, hot pepper, and oil.  Puree *make it almost like a liquid if you didn't know what puree meant* adding more oil if you need it.  From time to time stop the blender and scrape the sides to get everything blended.  Add a pinch of salt, throw in the lime juice *a tablespoon or two* and cover it up and throw it in the fridge for a day.  make sure before you serve it that you bring it to room temperature.

Yeah, they are but the shrimp aren't as dried out when you use unpeeled shrimp. Its kinda like skinned chicken it locks in the flavor.
