Jalapeño Lime Shrimp and Steak...

I still haven't found a good Blog editor, so you will have to deal with the pictures being all dorked up.

Sorry.

So, tonight I made a glaze of Jalapeño and Lime which was lovingly used to sauce some shrimp. I love shrimp. I must be careful with shrimp because I will over do it.



The following pictures show the building of the sauce and then the cooking of the shrimp and steak. There really is nothing more to say, so here are the visuals. By the way - the first picture is actually of the making of one of the ingredients for the glaze. The method calls for some Candied Jalapeño Licorice. Rather than try to buy some, I grabbed some friendly neighborhood chilies and made the stuff. After a soak and simmer in some sugar, ginger and cumin...they went into the hot box for a few hours to dry out and become...licorice-ee.

After that, the glaze is easy and oh so good. I will not take out so much of the ribbing of the chilies next time. The sauce wasn't hot enough. Flavor - yes. Heat - not so much. I should-a left more in. Live and learn and cook again.

BTW - the steak was done the same way as before, but without the alarms going off....I pulled the plug. Heh.
