Grilled Shrimp with Mangoes and Chile

Go to Recipe

In Singapore, satays are usually made with chicken or lamb. But for parties, Chris Yeo likes to use shrimp because he thinks it's more festive. He marinates the shellfish in an alluring mixture of sautéed garlic, ginger and ground spices, then threads each shrimp on its own skewer and grills them until they're lightly charred.

Mango Shrimp

Vikram Sunderam marinates the shrimp twice: first in garlic and ginger, then in a more complex marinade that includes yogurt, cashews, jalapeño and mango pulp. To streamline this process at home, combine the most important ingredients into one marinade and substitute store-bought mango nectar for the pulp.
