Directions
(My Note - Recipe was made with Walker's Wood Jerk, my personal favorite. I
would put it 2 Tbs. but again, it is subject to one's Scoville factor)
In a large saucepan cook shrimp, uncovered in lightly salted boiling warer,
1-3 min, drain immediately. Peel, leaving tails intact, devein. Place
shrimp in a heavy plastic bag and chill foor up to 24 hours. (This section
is for the purists among us - I'm sure you can use P&D shrimp from any
major foodstore).
For marinade, in a screw top jar combine oil, vinegar, lime juice, pepper,
honey & jerk. Cover & shake well to blend, pour over shrimp and chill for
one hour.
To serve, drain shrimp and reserve marinade. In a large bowl or serving
platter layer shrimp, lime, onion and mango, repeating until all are used.
Drizzle reserved marinade over, serve with a good negro cerveza & enjoy!
