Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 20 -25 large Marina Del Rey Wild Caught Argentinian Shrimp 20/30 per lb, thawed and peeled leaving tail on.
• 2 cloves garlic minced
• ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 lemon zested
• ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Deviled Eggs

• 8 large free run eggs boiled
• 4-5 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
• 1-2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons mini cucumber finely chopped, seeds removed – approximately 1 mini cucumber
• 2 tablespoons jalapeño finely chopped, seeds removed – approximately 1 large or 2 small jalapeños
• 2 tablespoons red bell pepper finely chopped
• ½ tablespoon fresh dill finely chopped
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

 

• Place eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with enough water that there's 1 ½ inches of water above the eggs. Cover and heat on high until water begins to boil, turn heat to low and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and leave covered for 14 minutes.
• Place shrimp in a medium bowl. Add garlic, red pepper flakes, olive oil, lime zest and pepper. Toss to coat completely. Set aside for 15-20 minutes to marinate.
• Rinse eggs under cold water continuously for 1 minute. Crack egg shells and carefully peel under cool running water. Gently dry with paper towels. Slice the eggs in half lengthwise, removing yolks to a medium bowl, and placing the whites on a serving platter.
• Mash the yolks into a fine crumble using a fork. Add 4 tablespoons yogurt, 1 tablespoon mustard, cucumber, jalapeño, red pepper, salt, pepper, dill and mix well. Taste and add additional yogurt, Dijon, salt & pepper to taste. Mixture should be very creamy.
• Place mixture in a small resealable plastic bag, cut a small hole in a bottom corner and pipe mixture into the egg whites and set aside.
• Grill the Shrimp: Heat grill to medium high heat, approximately 400 °F. Skewer the shrimp through the headend first then through the tail section. Grill the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and firm.
• Pan Sear the Shrimp: For this method, do not skewer the shrimp. Heat a non-stick skillet on medium high heat, and sear shrimp until pink and firm to the touch (about 2-3 minutes per side).
• Stand grilled shrimp vertically on prepared eggs and serve.
• Place additional grilled shrimp on platter and serve with hot sauce or cocktail sauce for dipping.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.
